NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — WeGo is adding three new zones to its rideshare program, the Adventure Science Center, Bell Road and Opry Mills.

If you find it challenging to get to and from the bus stop, this program provides discounted trips to transit stops from Uber and Mobility Solutions.

How does it work?

All you have to do is download a reusable voucher on the WeGo website. You will receive up to $8 off each WeGo Link ride booked with Uber — usually this means a ride only costs $2, according to WeGo.

You can also access the WeGo voucher using the Transit app.

Reminder: Riders need to have QuickTicket or exact cash in order to ride the bus after getting to the bus stop. WeGo says Mobility Solutions is available for riders who need a wheelchair, would like to use cash for their trip, or are 17 years old or younger.

Meet Trashley! New commercial pays tribute to 1970s Tennessee anti-litter ad

You'll love her and you'll love to hate her! Meet Trashley: the bad girl of Nashville littering. She stars in a new campaign that's a throwback to an anti-litter movement from years past. Her role has been reimagined by NDOT as a fast-paced, Dukes of Hazzard-style wrecking ball of a lady. You'll find yourself cracking up as you meet the actress behind Trashley and hear how she landed the role of Queen of Trash.
