Some possible questions to ask…

How will MoDOT and KDOT help cities respond to surging demand for transportation alternatives like bicycling, walking and transit?

What are the two states doing to reduce the number pedestrians and bicyclists injured or killed on state highways? (Missouri likes to tout its reduction in highway deaths, but forgets that bicycle fatalities have not decreased at the same time).

Will MoDOT quit messing around with bike/ped on the Paseo Bridge and just “get ‘r done”  ? ?

How will MoDOT stick to Pete Rahn’s promise to integrate bike/ped into future projects after he killed the Complete Streets bill?
