Here’s a reality check: in 2024, drivers struck and killed just over 7,000 people walking in the United States.
That’s nearly 20 percent higher than in 2016.
Pedestrian crashes continue to rise… especially at night and in places without sidewalks.
People don’t come with airbags, so watch for walkers wherever you drive — in crosswalks, neighborhoods and busy streets.
The WORLD is here. Our goal is to get you to your destination SAFE.

MARC is developing a material recovery plan to establish a robust circular economy in the Kansas City region.
We want to identify strategic partners who can contribute to materials-processing infrastructure that keeps more reusable and repurposed material right here in our region.

Marc Hansen plays a consequential role in our transportation planning, supporting literally hundreds of millions of dollars in transportation investments in our region.
He oversees and manages two of the main products of our metropolitan planning work — the Unified Planning Work Program and the Transportation Improvement Program.
He also manages two key programming committees that cooperatively award federal funding for projects in the region.
This all requires a lot of technical work and coordination, and Marc manages it smoothly and transparently. He is a diligent, calm, unflappable presence.
One of his colleagues commended him for the role he plays in balancing urban, suburban and rural community voices throughout these processes.
Thank you for 25 years of dedicated service, Marc!
