Project Description: |
The project will help connect two recognized activity nodes, one being downtown Overland Park, Kansas and the other being the Waldo area in Kansas City, Missouri. At a local level, it will encourage pedestrians to participate in active transportation by connecting local activity nodes of parks, shops, churches. The project will provide a way to increase access to transit. And the pavement will be rehabilitated in order to continue to meet the needs of the traveling public, the delivery of materials to businesses meeting regional demands, and transit schedules bringing Kansas Citians to both special events and daily work.
