An attempt to expand the streetcar both along Main and to the east via Linwood Boulevard and Independence Avenue was defeated by voters in The concept has the support of Mayor Quinton Lucas as well, according to the Streetcar Authority, but the city is not being asked to participate financially. Gerend also raised the possibility of the streetcar line being extended east from Main on Linwood as far as Prospect, but that concept would not be explored in the new joint study. Still, it was welcomed by authority board member Michael Collins.

Any plan to extend the route west on 39th Street would bring the streetcar into new territory, both geographically and technically. The street is narrower and less densely developed than the current downtown line and the planned extension on Main to the University of Missouri-Kansas City.

Should the other partners agree to fund the study, it would likely begin early next year and take about one year to complete. Gerend raised the possibility a 39th Street extension could begin initially as a Bus Rapid Transit line and later phased to a streetcar.
