One year on the Kansas City Metro...
One year ago today, I took my first, fateful trip on the Kansas City Metro. Today, as I was standing at one of my stops (on 39th and Broadway), waiting for my (late) bus (Fridays are days-off for most regular drivers and substitutes aren’t always…punctual), I was enjoying the few extra moments: nice weather, lots of action on the city streets, a couple of other regular riders standing or sitting and chatting next to me…
In the last year, I’ve ridden on 11+ bus lines from South Kansas City, Kansas to Independence, Missouri.
In celebration of my one-year Metro anniversary, here are some links to various Blog entries about my experiences.
Enjoy!

Tim, I had no idea that you are a METRO man… cool stuff. Our city transportation system has a ways to go, you could be the one to lobby and inspire it to completeness…

I use wheelchair and was wondering if the buses actually have wheelchair lifts on them, they say they do but I have never seen a bus that looks like it has one.

Yes, all of the Metro buses in Kansas City have wheel chair lifts (on
the rear door). If you need special accomodations, you can even have
the Metro send a bus shuttle right to your door.
