Welcome to Smart Moves
COORDINATED TRANSIT FOR THE KANSAS CITY REGION

Metro-wide transit is a smart move for any regional community that wants to guarantee economic opportunity and growth, cultural vitality, and varied choices of places to live, work, shop, learn, worship and play. MARC, in cooperation with the region's transit providers, is pleased to present the Smart Moves regional transit plan. It reflects years of research, planning, public meetings and consultation with local government officials, civic leaders and citizens.
