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:

Big changes are coming to the intersection of 75th Street and Wornall Road.

The city has received a $2-million federal grant to make the corner safer for bikes, walkers and vehicles in the busy business district.

"The current set up, the trolley trail kind of sends you through a busy parking lot that’s not really built or structured very well at this time," said Beth Breitenstein of Kansas City public works. "What we’re going to do is improve that access for parking users, the park-and-ride facility that KCATA operates over there, as well as send trolley trail users, through a safe connector through that area."

The changes are designed to make it easier for pedestrians, bus riders, cyclists and cars to travel into Waldo.
