Chouteau Parkway Public Open House Scheduled for May 13
April 20, 2010 . . .
A public open house is scheduled for Thursday, May
13 to update businesses and residents on the
anticipated schedule of improvements planned for
Chouteau Parkway. The open house will take place
from 5:30 to 7:00pm at Chouteau Elementary School,
3701 N. Jackson, Kansas City, Missouri 64117.
Improvements for Chouteau Parkway include
reconstruction and widening 3/4 miles of existing two-
lane roadway to a four-lane divided parkway with
adjacent multi‐purpose trail on Chouteau
Parkway
from Parvin Road to Highway 210.
Historically, a portion of Chouteau Parkway's two-lane
segment has been a point of congestion between the
four-lane segment that extends from Front Street north
to Route 210 and the four-lane segment that extends
north of Interstate 35. By providing the four-lane
connection to the south and north, improvement to this
section of the Parkway will improve mobility, safety
and provide for the efficient movement of goods and
people.
The Chouteau Parkway improvement is a cooperative
project of the Kansas City, Missouri Public Works and
Kansas City, Missouri Parks and Recreation
departments.
