Kansas City expects to expand streetcar service

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – Efforts are underway to expand Kansas City’s streetcar service as it reaches another milestone of more than 3.1 million riders since inception.

The Kansas City Star reports that the Kansas City Streetcar Authority, Port KC and the Kansas City Area Transportation Authority applied last month for a federal grant.

The exiting line runs about 2 miles through downtown, from Union Station to the River Market neighborhood. The proposed expansion would run from the River Market to Berkley Riverfront Park, along the Missouri River.
