Kansas City Regional Transit Alliance (KCRTA) commissioned a poll related to transit funding and other issues across four counties: Clay, Jackson, Johnson, and Wyandotte Counties. A majority of voters in every county support creating dedicated funding for public transportation, with the strongest support in Jackson County. KCRTA is working with partners to identify next steps, including public education and advancing a specific ballot measure.
In Jackson County, 57% of voters would support a ballot measure for transit funding, and that support climbs over 61% with additional messaging.
