Better to upgrade I-470 and 350 all the way up to where 350(Cleaver) joins 71 east of the Plaza. Then 71 south could be totally redesigned.

How can we prevent vandalism and graffiti on the public property in this area? Will MO-Dot commit to more litter clean-up?

Use space on the side or median to put in mass transit. Light rail or train like Chicago or Denver. Run it fom airport to Belton.

Put in new overpasses or pedestrian only overpasses if need be to prevent people from walking across lanes of traffic.

It’s a hwy. Remove stop lights. Put in bridges with walkways and cross lights. This will prevent crashes and pedestrian accidents.

Question: How are disabled or handicapped people going to be to use elevated pedestrian walkways? Needs of those walking need to be meet too

The stoplights and surface street crossings need to be removed as they are dangerous. More overpasses would help with reconnection.

I wish our green spaces were the dominant, defining presence in the neighborhood, rather than the highway & its effects.

I love patronizing neighborhood businesses like the cleaners on 59th & Swope. I wish our area had more walkable neighborhood businesses.

Lots of crashes on US71, lights at intersections not overpasses instead ,People drive crazier on US71 than other highway people race on 71

more police presence people drive crazy

Speeding needs to be fixed improve safety

Add another lane to US-71 on both sides

Need more police presence south of 59th St cops are mainly more north of 59th, but need also to be south

"Arrive Alive"

clean up US-71 tear down vacant buildings homeless people living in vacant buildings

leave alone some will be mad and others may be happy

could have been avoided by putting in the lights and not do all the overpasses

What about the construction impacts of making improvements, but it's unavoidable, the consequences of change

59th, 55th and Gregory need to be safer for people to cross hazardous to people walking east to west

People tend to speed in this area and it would be beneficial to add some speed bumps or change the speed limit.

Slower speeds would make it safer and lead to less accidents. The bridges across 71 are also better for pedestrians.

Better Youth Centers. Specialty Clinics. Wealth Management Organizations.

Clean up the area and STOP the trash and tires from being dumped in our neighborhoods!

Don't forget about us in Beacon Hill!

Help our kids have safe access to school and be able to safely cross US-71.

Invest in our youth!

Figure out how to use the green space in median

Sound barrier + Bike Paths + Dedicated Pedestrian thru-ways + Heat Pocket Mitigation

Why are you cutting bus routes?

PUBLIC TRANSIT

Reconnect community lights at Gregory to Cross take long

Pedestrian islands, speed zone sign for school

Remove traffic signals. Put in off-ramps for vehicles that need to exit.

Reduce crashes by slowing traffic

Grocery store

Better Youth Centers

Osage Living Nation Heritage Museum!

49th is a dumping area for many. Cameras are needed ASAP by apartments of Blue Parkway

Connect Brush Creek trails with Town Fork Creek Grenway, Meyer Blvd, & The Paseo to create bikeable loop.

clean up that creek!

How much will it cost the tax payer? Details

A tram for residents not tourists

Can we make this more of a boulevard like Ward Parkway?

Can have 71 connect to MLK and route traffic onto 435.

Connect trail to 63rd St.

How can the corridor serve those who live in it, rather than those who drive it?

Make it a blvd like The Esplanade in Chico, CA: tree lined, 2 street lanes either direction, mobility lane removed from road.

Tear it out and build like SW TFWY
