Interstate 29 reaches downtown Kansas City and the airport
I-29 is a direct route to the Kansas City International Airport, roughly 7 miles north. “People will purposely move here if they travel a lot for work and need to get to the airport in under 10 minutes,” Radtka says.

If you rely on public transportation to get around, RideKC buses run along Barry Road.
