Kansas City's Big LRT Expose

In an attempt to jump start the discussion about where light rail should run after the Mayor declared Clay Chastain's voter approved line dead, the Kansas City Star is running a number of small vignettes in the paper today. It's a pretty good job of covering many of the issues and has a cool map to boot. A good links page is located here. I will make a note that if they want to use streetcars for this plan they should have dedicated lanes. It's fine to use the modern streetcar vehicles, but this is a transit spine not a circulator.

And if you haven't been paying attention to KC since the vote passed last fall, go check out KCLightRail.com.
