The clinics will be held from 7:30 a.m. – 12 p.m., and 1 p.m. – 5 p.m. on May 18 and 19 at Manheim Kansas City, 3901 N Skiles Ave #9305, Kansas City, MO 64161. More information is available at www.drivingskillsforlife.com. “Providing real life, behind-the-wheel training is crucial in forming safe driving habits in this next generation of drivers,” said Jon Nelson, MoDOT’s Assistant State Highway Safety and Traffic Engineer. “The education these teen drivers are getting is invaluable and will only become more necessary as technologies continue to develop.” According to data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, vehicle crashes are one of the leading causes of death for U.S. teens; however, over the last two decades, fatal crashes involving teens fell 38% (GHSA). Additionally, there has been an alarming, rapid increase in pedestrian deaths since 2009, with drivers killing more than 7,500 people walking in 2022 – the most in four decades. This surge is due to a variety of factors, including U.S. streets being designed primarily to move cars quickly at the expense of keeping everyone safe (GHSA, Pedestrian Traffic Fatalities by State, 2023). Per mile driven, drivers ages 16 to 19 are nearly three times as likely to be killed in a crash compared to other drivers. In 2023, there were 21,562 crashes in Missouri involving a teenage driver, resulting in 8,508 injuries and 132 fatalities according to data from Missouri’s statewide integrated traffic records system. Now in its third decade, Ford Driving Skills for Life pairs newly licensed or permitted drivers with professional driving instructors for hands-on driver training in a safe, closed-course environment. Developed by Ford Philanthropy, GHSA and a panel of safety experts, the program addresses issues and critical factors that influence crashes, including vehicle handling, hazard recognition, speed and space management, distracted driving and impaired driving. The program supports a Safe System Approach, which prioritizes the elimination of crashes that result in death and serious injuries, while increasing safe, healthy, equitable mobility among all road users. New this year, the clinics now feature a Safety in Mobility module, which places an added emphasis on educating young drivers about pedestrian and cyclist safety. The new module engages teens in lessons around electric scooter safety and a safety technique that aims to stop cyclists and pedestrians from being hit by car doors. There is also a virtual reality component involving stationary bicycles. ###  Media are invited to attend the event.

The route was initially closed May 9 between Lake Ridge Lane and Rodgers Drive, approximately 1.25 miles north of Missouri Route 94. “Unstable soil conditions and increased rainfall continue to cause movement of the soil and further roadway damage,” said MoDOT Area Engineer Jeff Niemeyer. “Therefore, the road will remain closed for the foreseeable future until we can determine the next step toward a viable solution. We ask onlookers to please avoid the vicinity and do not enter beyond the road closed barricades.” This area has unique features underground that require study by geotechnical engineers to ensure the repair of the slide and road are safe and permanent. While a definite time frame for the closure has not been determined, it is expected to be several months before the road can reopen. The preferred detour around the closure is to use Missouri Route 94 to Missouri Route 47. The project to repair this location is currently included in the scoping section of the approved 2024-2028 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP).

The program allows organizations to leverage private-sector funds by providing partial state tax credits to businesses and individuals making contributions to approved youth development or crime prevention projects. YOP funds a variety of project types, including degree completion, internships and apprenticeships, mentoring, substance abuse prevention, violence prevention, counseling, and more.“We’re grateful to partner with recipients of the Youth Opportunities Program as they improve lives, strengthen communities, and help Missourians prosper,” said Michelle Hataway, Director of the Department of Economic Development.A total of up to $6 million is awarded through YOP annually, with projects limited to $200,000 in tax credits.

YOP tax credits allow donors to increase their contribution to Children’s Home Society of Missouri, making a larger impact in our communities.

The larger improvement project is expected to total nearly $2.1 million and construction is estimated to start in 2025.The early planning phases of infrastructure projects often represent a significant financial burden for cash-limited communities with water and wastewater needs. The Planning and Design Loan Program provides a cost-effective alternative to expensive private financing, allowing communities to complete vital infrastructure projects. These loans bear no interest and come with a five-year term. The funding provided by the department is estimated to save the district’s customers approximately $43,500 in interest over the loan’s five-year term.“The department is proud to offer funding assistance vehicles that can help qualified communities undertake water and wastewater improvement projects,” said Dru Buntin, director of the Missouri Department of Natural Resources. “We can tailor assistance programs for communities of all sizes so they can improve their treatment systems. This in turn helps protect public and environmental health, and improves the quality of life for Missourians.”The department’s Drinking Water State Revolving Fund finances improvements to water treatment and distribution systems, water storage and supply facilities, as well as interconnection or consolidation projects. Communities that borrow from the fund benefit from the below-market interest rate and from assistance provided throughout their project by a project manager.The department’s Financial Assistance Center is committed to working with communities to assist with water and wastewater infrastructure improvement projects. This project will be funded wholly or in part with monies received from the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency.For more information about drinking water and wastewater funding opportunities, visit dnr.mo.gov/water/business-industry-other-entities/financial-opportunities/financial-assistance-center.
