KC Streetcar Constructors will host a series of three open-house style, public meetings to meet stakeholders and discuss construction impacts. No formal project
presentations will occur and participants are welcome to arrive and depart according to their schedule. During these meetings, participants will be able to find out more about how streetcar track, station stops, and vehicles are expected to look; the construction schedule and impacts; and how to stay informed with the most accurate information about the project.
Construction will officially start February 2014 on the KC Downtown Streetcar starter line, which will travel along Main Street and connect the River Market through the Central Business District and Crossroads District to Union Station.
