Seven Routes Add Service During World Cup
Routes Affected
Effective: June 7-July 11
Good news for daily RideKC customers and tourists visiting Kansas City for the upcoming World Cup action! Seven RideKC routes will be expanding service to support increased demand and to provide more frequent connections to the KC Streetcar. The KC Streetcar will be directly serving FanFest at Liberty Memorial.
This temporary increase in service will be effective Sunday, June 7, 2026, through Saturday, July 11, 2026. On July 12, service will revert to the schedule in place today.
Schedules will be updated online June 6.
This temporary service improvement is made possible by federal funding primarily designated for World Cup.
