Leavenworth Countywide Transportation Plan

The Leavenworth County Region, including the cities of Basehor, Lansing, Leavenworth, and Tonganoxie, along with the County of Leavenworth and the Leavenworth County Port Authority (LCPA), in cooperation with the Mid-America Regional Council and the Kansas Department of Transportation, is working to prioritize transportation investments in the coming years. Over the past few decades, there have been numerous studies on transportation infrastructure in and around the Leavenworth County region. These studies have focused on projects that range from modest investments to grand visions of new freeways and river crossings. With these wide-ranging studies, however, comes the question: what projects do the leaders, stakeholders and general public in the region want to prioritize to seek regional, state or federal funding? This prioritization plan seeks to best position the communities within Leavenworth County – rural and municipal – to compete for and obtain funding to advance transportation projects. The plan has been branded as Priorities for Progress: Connecting Community Opportunities (“P4P”).
