Learn about the new land use and transportation plans proposed for Greater Kansas City
The Mid-America Regional Council is currently developing a new long-range transportation plan for the Kansas City metro, and it includes a new land-use scenario that would encourage more compact, sustainable, and efficient development patterns. The plan focuses new investments around existing infrastructure, which will help developing communities grow more efficiently and older communities redevelop more successfully. This new development model would facilitate better investment in sustainable transportation choices like transit, walking, and bicycling. It is called the Adaptive Land Use Scenario.
While MARC has created a very good plan, local elected officials need to hear from constituents that there is public support for making the policy changes to implement this plan. You can learn about the Adaptive Land Use Scenario in Transportation 2040 at one of these upcoming public meetings:
