The Downtown Corridor Alternatives Analysis will bring Kansas City closer to realizing a potential starter line for an expanded future regional public transportation system. Funded largely by a Federal Transit Administration (FTA) grant, the study will identify the locally preferred alternative for a downtown transit distributer, and a viable plan to fund the construction, operation and maintenance of the line.
The alternatives analysis will build on previous planning efforts, MARC’s Smart Moves regional transit vision, and ongoing commuter-rail projects. The intent is to use the alternatives analysis results to secure funding for implementation and potentially apply for future federal funds.
