Too bad Columbus Park doesn't get a station.

strictly guessing, but maybe the existing redevelopment plan for the NE portion already includes a stop but it's not finalized so it can't be announced.

So Plaza and Westport were announced for more stations...anything additional for downtown neighborhoods like rivermarket, westside, 18th / Vine?

new kiosk installed at the kauffman foundation building on brush creek. 3rd & grand kiosk has added 4 more stalls due to heavy use.

That's encouraging! Glad to hear people are utilizing this option.

Westport and Plaza areas finally have 4 stations each now. Slow growing but at least still moving forward (does STL even have bikeshare yet?). UMKC, Penn Valley and MAX stops through Midtown seem to be next logical locations but suppose it just depends on where the sponsors/funding comes from.

I let my pass expire but now that it's in Midtown area, will be renewing.

bike share gets $75K in the just-published city budget... from the 1/2-cent transportation tax.

Great news but still behind other cities. Nashville really kicking into gear, though STL and ATL don't yet have. UMKC needs a couple stations as well as W side of River Market.

Agree is now time to get inside neighborhoods. Do neighborhood associations pay for stations in other cities?

Would love for the westside to get it together for a stop...a 2nd city market stop is needed as well.

ahem, westside housing is an obvious candidate to pay for a westside bike share kiosk.

Westside and SW river market are the two biggest gaps in the network downtown right now.
