Cumberland Avenue: Free Parking, Free KAT Rides, Free Information 
As Vice Mayor Nick Pavlis is fond of saying, Cumberland Avenue is open for business, so don’t let the City of Knoxville's Cumberland Avenue Corridor Project prevent you from heading to your favorite restaurant or shop on The Strip.  

For one thing, free parking is available through an agreement with Fort Sanders Regional Hospital, whose surface lot at 19th Street and White Avenue can be used for free from 5 p.m. to 6 a.m. daily, except during football games. The same applies to the parking lot at UT Federal Credit Union, 2100 White Avenue.

 Moreover, starting June 1, KAT is offering a Fare-Free Zone along all of Cumberland Avenue. This zone will run from downtown all the way to the western end of Volunteer Blvd., creating an easy trip from downtown to The Strip and back at no charge.  KAT will have bright signage distinguishing its Fare-Free stop locations and will also have information at those stops that will allow users to know when their bus is expected to arrive and depart. 

Also, here are several ways to keep up to date on the project so that you can successfully navigate your way to and through the area.
