Franklin Transit offering half-price fares for teens and tweens

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Okay parents, summer is just days away and we know some of you may be dreading playing chauffeur to your kids.

But for families in Williamson County, I wanted to let you know that your teen or tween can get around easier this summer!

Starting today, kids ages 12 to 18 can ride Franklin Transit for half-price!

That means one-way fares are just 50-cents.

There are more than 100 stops, including the Rec Center, the Factory, the Galleria Mall, the Library and more.

The deal runs until kids go back to school in August.

Family turns tragedy into hope through 'Asher's Animals' stuffed animal donations

In this job, we have the opportunity to meet truly remarkable people. The Sullivan family has faced incredibly tough times, but time and time again, turn their grieving into giving. What an honor to tell their story.
