SAE TOMORROW TODAY - How Kansas is Reshaping Multimodal Transportation

What does it take to build a multimodal transportation network that actually works for rural communities, growing regions, and everyone in between? In Kansas, that question is critical as the Kansas City Chiefs plan their stadium move and the 2026 FIFA World Cup comes to town. Listen in as we sit down with Matt Messina, Chief of Multimodal Transportation at the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT), to explore how Kansas is prioritizing transit solutions for upcoming projects and how community input shapes decisions. It's an insightful journey into the challenges and opportunities of public transit, pedestrian infrastructure, and the future of mobility. We'd love to hear from you.
