PA CMT Description:
|
The addition of sidewalks, dedicated bike lanes, and/or multi-purpose trails are fundamental to providing a Complete Streets corridor. They will also improve and expand the facilities dedicated to serving pedestrians and bicyclists while providing more separation from motorists. Incorporating provisions for fiberoptic connectivity, sensors and/or cameras will allow for passive and active monitoring of the corridor and implementation of V2X connectivity with travelers on 98th Street.
|
|
PA SOV Capacity:
|
This area is designated for future development and densification in the next 10 years. Adjacent activity centers are also expected to grow and increase their draw from nearby areas. This project allows for that growth and makes use of an existing corridor to guide and attract new development rather than allowing a situation in which development constructs new streets and adds greater maintenance burdens on the City.

G15 Other unique local goals and objectives?
|
No
This project provides a unique opportunity for multiple benefits and more complete access between Edwardsville and neighboring commercial and residential areas in Kansas City, KS. 98th Street has long been discussed as a major focus and opportunity for the community to better integrate into Wyandotte County from economic, safety, and convenience perspectives for residents.
|
|
G16 Transportation Disadvantaged Population:
|
There are a significant number of low-income, older adult, and no-car households who have very limited options for non-Interstate access to nearby services and employment. Improving 98th Street between K-32 and State Avenue will provide a continuous, multi-modal link for those populations to expand access and choices. This project is the first step in achieving that goal.
|
|
G17 Relevant Public Engagement:
|
The City has gathered repeated comments from the public thru ongoing social media channels ("Hotshot" channel, Facebook, online surveys, etc.), Council meetings, and other feedback as to 98th Streets need for improvement and possibilities for the future.
|
|
G18 Planned Public Engagement:
|
The City will continue to use its highly-active and engaged social media channels (including "Hotshot"), post online videos, and conduct specific public/virtual meetings to share more information. The City uses online surveys to solicit targeted feedback as well as providing means for freeform comments from the public. The City has found that their transportation disadvantaged populations are fairly active and accessible thru these means.
|
|
G19 Sustainable Places Criteria:
|
----Active Transportation/Living---Age in Place-------
Complete Street Design---Connected Street Network---Context Appropriate Streets-------
----Green Infrastructure-------Integrated Trail System---
Mixed-Density Neighborhoods---------------
----------------
Transit-Ready Corridors-----
|
|
G19.1 Describe PSP relationship:
|
The proposed improvements to 98th Street will:
- add the necessary mobility options to the corridor to encourage more active lifestyles and more completely meet the differing needs of the community
- address a wider age range of population safely and with more choices as to transportation
- provide a more robust link in the Citys transportation network and expand its trail system links
- create opportunities to address environmental and/or natural resource issues along the corridor
- provide adequate capacity and variety to support different types of uses and housing in the area
- provide facilities and infrastructure to support future transit service between Edwardsville and Kansas City, KS.
|
|
G20 Implements Sustainable Places Initiatives?
|
Yes
This project is compatible for the recommended strategies identified in the adjoining K-32 Tri-City Multimodal Redevelopment Plan. The designated 98th Street corridor connects to K-32 at its southern end. The 98th Street project will support long-term multi-modal connectivity and transit options to nearby activity centers.
|
|
G21 Serves Regional Activity Center?
|
Yes
High-Intensity and More_Walkable Centers
98th Street is the most direct local route between the activity centers in Edwardsville and those in the Village West area of Kansas City, KS. It will provide the first link that includes dedicated facilities for vehicles, pedestrians, and bicyclists. Its unique capabilities will improve the local character and generate greater likelihood of desired development activity.
|
|
G22 Environmental justice tracts?
|
Yes
Yes, 98th Street improvements will directly serve to link EJ tracts in Kansas City, KS with Edwardsvilles activity center/employment center south of K-32 Hwy.
|
|
G23 Reduces greenhouse gas emissions?
|
Yes
This project will reduce GHG emmisssions/fuel use by:
- creating a more efficient roadway for vehicles to travel
- provide facilities that encourage non-motorized trips to replace vehicular trips
|
|
G24 Natural Resource information:
|
The project will localize improvements along an existing roadway corridor rather than disturbing a new alignment. Stream crossings will be addressed by restoring aquatic passages, stabilizing stream banks where appropriate, and restoring vegetation using preferred native species. Erosion control measures will be put in place to minimize sediment runoff and other impacts during construction.
|
|
G25 Community Links at Watershaed Scale:
|
MARC has identified a significant portion of the 98th Street corridor as needing Green Infrastructure. This will be an opportunity to address some of those needs.
|
|
G26 Explain local land use or comprehensive plans:
|
The Citys Comprehensive Plan supports the improvement of 98th Street to act as a major route for residents and businesses.

Improving 98th street would make a great impact in our community. This street is in dire need.
Thank you for your consideration.

102nd street from riverview to K-32 is in terrible disrepair
If you are going to do 98th from Kansas ave to the north limit that is a total of what 12 houses really what a waste when far more tax payers are on 102nd street
98th is worse between Kansas Ave and Swartz (5 homes ) than the 12 homes between Kansas ave and riverview
Who lives there that works for the city???
The manager oh I understand he lives in JOCO
What a farce
Does the new city inspector live on that street
Really far more traffic on 102nd street that any street other than K-32 in Edwardsville

98th ST. is in terrible condition and once finished 102nd ST should follow its toss up which street is in worse shape ??

The safety improvements alone that will be accomplished by this project are worth a hard look from the evaluating committee. Thank you for the opportunity to apply for this much needed funding.

I agree 98th needs to be redone. Just curious if a traffic study was done between 104th, 102nd and 98th? I feel at least one needs to be done but feel we should be doing the street that has the most traffic.
Looking forward to improvements to Edwardsville!

This road is very key to the long range plans for our citys effective transportation. It is the key connection between 32 highway and Kansas Avenue. Improving/replacing this connector will enable safer transportation and open up development opportunities in the future.

I am head over heels in love with this plan! The thing is, none of us believe this will happen. When we moved into our house on 98th St 18 yrs ago, we did so based on the promise that a sewer system was being added within two years. Never happened. Not in this plan, either.
10/14/2020 10:57:49 AM
Peggy B Turrel said...
Having reread this several times, I find improvements from K32 north to State Ave are much more vague than State Ave to the north city limits. I know the bridge that floods out has been shored up, but its only been fixed with a bandaid. Now that tractor trailers are using 98th from Kansas Ave south to K32 as regular routes, the roads are being shredded. Additionally, the roads are too narrow for both semi and family car, so families are run off the road by the huge tractor trailers. Once again, Ill bring up the long promised and non-existent sewers from K32 north to Kansas Ave.

They are only doing this cause they spent a lot of money on a multi family development before the city when bankrupt .. and know at 98th. And state ave a development cleared the land along 98th. St ..

98th St. is embarrassing to the city of Edwardsville and I am in favor or improvements on this street.

Tom Burroughs said...
98th Street has tremendous potential for additional development. The City of Edwardsville is a integral part of Wyandotte County and this opportunity to enhance 98th St. artery to Kansas Ave is much needed for walkabilty, community connectivity, and economic development. I commend our local leaders for their vision and commitment to invest/improve the infrastructure to accomplish these needs. I fully support this project.
10/14/2020 3:53:47 PM
Virginia Hutchens said...
So, does this mean even more traffic on 98th street? Will Semis be allowed to go up and down the street? This is very concerning as a parent to young children. As far as future development, does this also mean some residents homes and property will be aquired through eminent domain and then torn down? We are making home improvements and I do not want to spend any more time or money if I will be losing my home. I live very near today the Kansas Ave intersection.
