Transit Action Network (TAN)

Transit Action Network (TAN) is providing this transit forum for KC Council Candidates to assist voters in making informed decisions regarding candidates’ positions on transit matters for the City of Kansas City. We will not endorse any candidate through our website or other communication efforts.

We believe these questions will need to be addressed during the next council term, although they deal with transit issues that have both short-term and long-term time horizons.

We greatly appreciate the effort and thoughtful answers of the candidates who replied.  All candidates were contacted.

TAN looks forward to working with the successful candidates on transit issues.

Public Comment: TAN is serious about getting improved and expanded transit in the Kansas City Region.  We welcome diverse views on transit that are presented in a civil manner. This is a moderated blog-site and only transit-related comments or questions will be posted.
