Headlines are quick hits from media outlets from Missouri and around the world. Follow the headline link for the full story. The source of this headline says:
MoBikeFed comment: BikeWalkKC is the lead bike/ped advocacy group in the Kansas City region, and has worked hard to build support in the city for a greatly improved citywide bicycle plan.If you are frustrated with the pace of adding bike lanes on the streets of Kansas City, you are not alone. The KCMO City Auditor has released a performance audit of “Bike KC” – the city’s 2001 bike plan, finding it was inadequate from the start and a series of challenges over the last 15 years have doomed its success. . . .
The audit recommends starting over with a new comprehensive bike master plan. Not only was the original plan inadequate, the field of bike planning has advanced tremendously since 2001.
This Auditor's Report is an excellent opportunity to move that vision forward, and BikeWalkKC is leading the way.
MoBikeFed's summary of the report, the situation, the history, and the opportunity:
