Streetcar Updates

Monthly meetings held to discuss streetcar progress.

The Kansas City Streetcar Authority (KCSA) meets on the last Thursday of the month, from 12pm-1pm, at the Port Authority Office located at 300 Wyandotte, Kansas City, Missouri. These meetings are open to the public and the agendas are posted online at kcstreetcar.org.

The next KCSA Board Meeting is 12:00pm on Thursday, August 27, 2015.

The KCSA is a not-for-profit organization formed for the purpose of managing, operating, and maintaining the streetcar once it is operational. In addition to overseeing streetcar operations, the KCSA supports system branding, marketing, safety oversight, public communication, and community engagement.

While the KCSA is a separate entity, it works closely with the City of Kansas City, Missouri and the downtown Transportation Development District (TDD) to coordinate service development and long-term management of the streetcar.

The day-to-day functions of the KCSA are managed by its executive director, Tom Gerend, with oversight from the Board of Directors.
