Our Campaigns
We aren’t just about ideas. We’re about action, and we would love for you to partner with us on our mission to say, ‘Yes!” to better neighborhoods. Currently, we have five campaigns (initiatives) and if you’re interested in getting involved in any one (or all five!) of them, shoot us an email and let us know! These initiatives won’t be easy to accomplish, but we believe that by saying yes to all of them, Knoxville will become better for every single one of us.
HOME
We are in a housing crisis, and it’s because of a simple imbalance of supply and demand. To fix that, we have to fix our zoning.
BUILD
The way we develop our land is a major reason we can’t add more housing, and why our city is so unwalkable. It’s time that changes.
PLACE
Our most beloved and economically strong places are those that are walkable and pedestrian-focused. Let’s get more of these.
B4
People deserve options to travel around town in a safe and efficient way that isn’t a car. There’s a simple way to fix that.
RAISE
The bare minimum is never enough, especially in the way we design our infrastructure. We can and should demand better.
COMING SOON!
We will have many other campaigns in the future! Check on this page to see when new campaigns drop!
Future of Rail
Join us in advocating for passenger rail service in the Tennessee Valley. Together, we can enhance travel options and connect communities.
Our Mission
The Tennessee Valley Passenger Rail Coalition exists to champion the restoration and expansion of passenger rail service through the Tennessee Valley. We believe that rail is essential infrastructure, just like roads. It is our mission to advocate for investments that connect communities, support economic growth, reduce long-term maintenance burdens, and offer Tennesseans a reliable, sustainable, and competitive transportation choice. Our coalition brings together citizens, civic leaders, and transportation experts to make passenger rail a cornerstone of 21st-century mobility in the Volunteer State.
