Seg. 1: Kansas City Transit Redesign | Seg. 2: Truman Library Renovation

Segment 1: An overhaul of the public transportation system needs input from residents.  

The Kansas City Area Transportation Authority and RideKC is undertaking a system redesign that would bring more than just new bus routes to the metro. To help meet the current needs of riders, they are surveying residents and commuters to find out what's most important to them in public transit.

Segment 2, begining at 26:25: Truman Presidential Library and Museum will receive its largest renovation since opening its doors.

The presidential library will be closed for about a year as it undergoes a multi-million-dollar renovation. Visitors can expect a 21st century update that provides more space for exhibits, and an interactive experience.

When I host Up To Date each morning at 9, my aim is to engage the community in conversations about the Kansas City area’s challenges, hopes and opportunities. I try to ask the questions that listeners want answered about the day’s most pressing issues and provide a place for residents to engage directly with newsmakers.
