Will this layout be extended the rest of the way along Grand? While not perfect, I like it better than the faded layout of the previous bike lanes. Also, why is the street closed off? I wish they would've done Independence-Truman, but we're gonna be stuck with the current layout (and faded paint) f...

Bollards are up! https://i.imgur.com/oqeLgzr.jpg They filled in the flex posts on the NB side so that the MAX platform is inaccessible, and the SB side also has a very sharp turn the bus drivers have to make. So I feel for the bus drivers (and riders) and hope that the SB side doesn't become too mu...

there is nothing marking that's a bike lane right now. This is all about to be resolved so much ado about nothing. There’s painted graphics that depict a person on a bicycle in the bike lanes. Project is delayed as well so who knows when the delineators will be installed. Exactly. Each block has it...

What's there to fight?

Yeah I'd just move the bike lane off grand maybe the crossroads cycle track will change my mind though I'm starting to have my doubts that they accomplish the cycle track extension up to 12th this year since they haven't done any work yet. But once it's up and running, catch ya later Grand- especia...

I love how the bike lanes divert around the bus stops unto the sidewalks where all the bus passengers are standing. I saw this in action today. Great in theory, but terrible in real world situations. Unloading/loading bus? The passengers are going to walk right into you. Rush hour? People are not p...

My biggest issue with the half-moons are that Platt made a few comments about them being pedestrian islands, when that cannot be farther from the truth. At minimum make them as wide as the median and line up with the crosswalks. Trees would make a world of difference but I see them not being open to...

BreakoutKC is expanding into the Market 3 space.

They literally just finished resurfacing a large swath of grand through the CBD. I thought maybe they were going to make some kind of adjustment now while doing that. Its a shame they missed that opportunity. The West side of the street is becoming parking protected. For whatever dumb reason, the E...

If they were to choose that spot they would actually have to start working on traffic detour signage and come up with a plan so that the buses wouldn't have an even further detour (with a hypothetical event at T-Mobile at the same time). Even without a T-Mobile event, I could see them wanting to clo...

Some rumblings online that WOF is finally getting a new coaster for the 50th anniversary (next year) in the area where Dinosaurs alive was. So far just grading plans submitted on Compass. *Fingers crossed we get an RMC Raptor* I think it's going to be a wooden coaster from what I've seen. If they d...

Their CID was approved years ago for "renovation" purposes.

Thanks for the list y'all!

While true (and I'm very grateful for it) Grand also falls under him and look how we can't even get a fresh coat of paint on that.

Sorry for the stupid question- which trails in the metro are paved (if any at all)? Would love to get in on riding them, but am doing my best to not have to get a 2nd bike to enjoy.

Anyone else planning to get a ticket to take a trip out of here the first day this opens? I'll happily let others experience the sure fire issues that will happen initially and enjoy it after the kinks are worked out. I guarantee the new airport & initial kinks will still be 100x better than th...

As long as Bunch goes. There isn't a more incompetent person in government and that's saying something. Oh c'mon. Bunch has been disappointing, but he's miles better than Loar or Ellington. I never get a response from emails or calla but I see him on Twitter tweeting about bike lane stuff. It's coo...
