Gillham Rd. Cycle Track to Trolley Track Trail Connector
KCMO Public Works aims to create a safer, more inclusive city for everyone, whether in cars, on foot, or on bicycles. At the heart of these efforts is Vision Zero, the City’s ambitious program aimed at eliminating traffic-related deaths and serious injuries by 2030. Our first project under this initiative involved connecting the Gillham Rd Cycle Track to the Trolley Track Trail, resulting in a 10.5-mile continuous protected facility. This connection not only provides a safe route for cyclists but also improves access to jobs, neighborhoods, transit lines, schools, and more. DuBois Consultants took the lead on this project, providing preliminary designs for roadway improvements at three intersections. Our team’s work also included traffic analysis, traffic signals, and the design of pavement markings, sidewalks, and signage to enhance safety and usability.
