Advocacy:

Paseo Bridge Bike/Ped Access: MoDOT is building a new quarter billion dollar bridge in the heart of Kansas City. It could provide the first safe bicycle/pedestrian crossing of the Missouri River near downtown Kansas City. We've been working on this for years and now it's going to move or die forever in the next month or so.

Advocacy:

Hwy 45 Bike/Ped Access: MoDOT is building a new highway through Parkville, Missouri. Guess what--their plans for accommodating bicycling and walking are inadequate, plus they forgot to include any funding for them.

Advocacy:

Bicycling License Plate: Many other states have 'Share the Road with Bicycles' license plates. Why not Missouri, too? In 1 minute you can show your support.

Overland Park is holding a meeting Monday February 3rd at 7:30PM in the council chamber at City Hall, 8500 Santa Fe Drive, to discuss a bike hike trail and other capital improvements, and the implementation of traffic calming measures in various areas of the city.

Traffic calming measures would help make city streets friendlier for pedestrians and cyclists.
