Today, Burlington functions as a highway corridor, but North Kansas City plans to transform Burlington into a thriving, sustainable, complete street and a more inviting front door for the community. A centerpiece of this undertaking is a two-way cycle track that would give bicyclists a dedicated safe place, and the ability to connect several important destinations.
When completed - hopefully in 2024 - improvements to Burlington will represent one of the most comfortable and highest quality bicycle facilities in the region. BikeWalkKC is providing detailed technical assistance for this project, including:
- Best practice bike facility design
- Intersection and driveway design
- Crosswalk design and markings
- Pavement materials and colors
- Transitions between bike facilities, sidewalks, and automobile lanes
- Design of physical barriers
- Bike signal operations
- Integration of bicycle facilities with transit boarding areas
- ADA considerations
- Coordination of bicycle facilities and stormwater infrastructure
- Coordinating regional connections
