Mid K - Buses, Bikes, Streets, & Feet . . . or How I Learned to Stop Loving My Car
Kevin Klinkenberg is that guy – you know, the one who takes pictures of buses on vacation. And enjoys it. He’d like us to imagine what kind of bus system we’d have in KC if we were starting from scratch.
Dave Scott is infuriated by right-turn lanes. Not to mention left-turn lanes, on-street parking restrictions, long signals and the car sewers that dominate our city. He thinks it’s time to put our roads on an extreme diet.
Stephen Rhoades enjoys long walks under a clear sky and serene bike rides through leafy streets. Unfortunately, he can’t do those in KC, so he spends his time dreaming up ways to actually get people off their butts and into comfortable shoes.
