In 2021, the system had a ridership of 4,988,000, or about 22,600 per weekday as of the second quarter of 2022. The University Connector (route 21) began on Sunday, September 30, 2012. This route provides cross-town service connecting five universities including Tennessee State University, Meharry Medical College, Fisk University, Vanderbilt University, Belmont University. Buses travel via the new 28th/31st Avenue Bridge every 30 to 60 minutes on weekdays and hourly on weekends. The route provides transfer points to 10 other MTA bus routes. It served Lipscomb University until September 29, 2019, when route 21 was rerouted to serve 100 Oaks instead of Lipscomb University; Lipscomb University is now served by the 12th Avenue South (route 17) In addition, MTA partnered with the Metro Arts Commission, which commissioned six artist-designed transit shelters are placed along the new 28th/31st Avenue Bridge. The MTA was the only transit agency in the country to implement payment with credit card at the fare box. That proof of payment approach has since been discontinued as of March 2009. (en)
