Nashville International Airport Employee Parking Petition

On July 1, 2019 Nashville Airport made changes to the employee parking bus route and drop off & pick up area at the airport to the new parking garage. It has impacted non management employees of all airlines, venders and TSA by adding anywhere from 15 to 30 additional minutes to our previous bus experience from the employee parking lot to the terminal. Also to mention a 5-7 minute walk from the parking garage to our time clocks. The parking garage is unsafe. It has exposure to toxic fumes in the garage, extreme heat, lack of traffic guidance in the garage which makes it unsafe and lacks assistance to those that are handicapped to get in the terminal. The busses haven't had a set schedule for the past 5 years. Sometimes waiting for 20 minutes for a bus then to have 2 to 3 one after another. They can't seem to get them timed 5, 7, 10 minutes apart. They have been known to be overpacked to leave others stranded at the later bus stops waiting for another bus. Over crowded busses are a safety hazard and most recently having a employee on the bus doing a indecent act while fully exposed, witnessed and recorded, now adding a feeling of fear and safety for all employees having to travel on the bus. Women especially feeling unsecure & vulnerable walking to & from the bus and their cars at all hours of the day & night.
