Well I'm back to one handed blogging so sorry for the last minute notice but there are two public meetings tonight you might be interested in. First one deals with the update to the bike plan. In case you are wondering what I am talking about, check out my previous post on the topic and check out the Bike KC update page and share with your friends. The meeting is at Northland Cathedral at US 169 and Tiffany Springs Parkway.

The second is the design public hearing for improvements to North Woodland aka Maplewoods Parkway.
It's been a little over a year since KCMO applied for federal funds to help with rebuilding the corridor and KCMO was successful in securing $6M which will be combined with the recently passed GO Bond package to rebuild the unimproved two lane road to Maplewoods Parkway from NE 96th Street to Shoal Creek Parkway. Here's the official notice:
