18th & Vine Study

2025-2026 Feasibility Study

KC Streetcar, in partnership with the Kansas City Area Transportation Authority (KCATA) and Kansas City, is conducting a feasibility study to extend the streetcar east from Main Street to the 18th & Vine District. This study will assess route options, transit demand, and facilitate public engagement to support future planning for the 18th & Vine District. The official study area includes Wyandotte Street to Woodland Avenue, and 17th Street to 20th Street.

Kick-Off: Oversight Advisory Committee

The feasibility study officially kicked off on Monday, September 22, with the first Oversight Advisory Committee (OAC) meeting. The OAC is made up of 18th Street stakeholders including neighborhood leaders, business owners, cultural stewards, and public officials.

This first meeting brought committee members together to learn what this study entails, including the project schedule, and started important conversations about the community’s goals. You can view the presentation that was shared at the meeting here.
