Your Turn to Talk: Parking problems in Nashville

Parking in Nashville can be a problem.

Demand for affordable spaces is rising — along with rates — and parking management sometimes wrongfully charges fees or boots without warning. Today, we discuss parking problems, what can be done to alleviate them, and what the future of parking looks like as new construction continues to boom and expand into residential areas.

Parking Management companies that were contacted did not want to comment or did not respond to requests for comment.
