KANSAS CITY, MO –
KCUR Evening Headlines (1 min 49 sec)

  • The act of extending Kansas City's bus tax is likely to send voters to November's polls with another issue: a light rail plan.
  • The Paseo Bridge replacement project will get underway a week from Monday.
  • Drivers in the Independence area, on the other hand will see an improvement in traffic conditions as the Noland Road bridge over I-70, which has been closed since mid-February, reopens sometime early next week.
