Kansas City, Missouri, leaders broke ground recently on a new Bicycle Pedestrian Bridge on Grand Boulevard. The project aims to give people a safer way to walk or bike from the River Market to the Berkley Riverfront. . . . This connector will be built adjacent to the current Grand Boulevard Bridge. Waldron said it's the largest multi-modal transportation project the city has ever funded at over $15 million. "I've walked down the bridge here many times," said KCMO Councilman Eric Bunch. "I’ve biked on it, I've run on it. It is not for the faint of heart, but it is one that people have used because we know how important it is to get down here."
