The Kansas City Streetcar Authority (KCSA) is a not-for-profit organization formed for the purpose of managing, operating, and maintaining the streetcar as well as planning for future streetcar extensions. In addition to overseeing streetcar operations, the KCSA supports system branding, marketing, public communication, and community engagement.
While the KCSA is a separate entity, it works closely with the City of Kansas City, Missouri and the KC Area Transportation Authority, as well as the operations contractor Herzog Transit. The day-to-day functions of the KCSA are managed by a staff of five with oversight from the Board of Directors.
