Kansas City is holding the first of four community summits for Reconnecting the East Side. US‑71’s construction divided neighborhoods along the US-71 corridor, including in the study areas of this project from Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard to 85th Street. Today, Kansas City is working to create a safer, more connected community. Join us in this ongoing conversation at an important community summit. Your feedback and experiences will help shape the future of this project. Learn more on the official project website!
