The Nashville reality: rapid growth, few shortcuts
Nashville's growth has outpaced its roads, and a cross-town errand on I-24 or I-40 can eat an hour. Meanwhile BNA's new international routes — including nonstops to Europe — mean more Nashvillians need passports than ever.
There is no regional US Passport Agency in Nashville or anywhere in Tennessee; the nearest are in Atlanta and New Orleans. Standard applications run through the county clerk and USPS facilities, so bringing a compliant photo the first time saves a second trip.
