KANSAS CITY, Missouri — Delaware Street has reopened with streetcar tracks from Third Street to Independence Avenue, a pedestrian median at Fifth Street and several new red crosswalks.

In addition, the parking configuration on Delaware Street has changed. On-street parking is now on the east side of Delaware Street and is back-in angle parking, or reverse angle parking, between Third and Fifth Streets. Motorists are encouraged to back into the parking spaces. New signage is placed in the area to help alert motorists of the change. Prior to track construction, on-street parking was on the opposite (or west) side of the street.

Sidewalk and curb restoration as well as overhead contact system pole installation will continue on Delaware Street. Later this spring, station stop construction will take place near Fourth and Delaware Streets.
