Waymo opens its robotaxi service to all of Nashville

Waymo opened its fully autonomous ride-hailing service to the general public in Nashville on June 25, letting anyone download the app and hail a driverless trip across a roughly 60-square-mile service area spanning Broadway, 12 South, Midtown and East Nashville. The public launch follows an interest-list rollout running since April that served tens of thousands of riders, with access through the Lyft app slated for later in 2026. Nashville extends Waymo's commercial footprint as it scales toward more than a million paid rides per week.
