Sprint launched a free public Wi-Fi network in Kansas City, Missouri, covering the 2.2-mile KC Streetcar line through downtown. The network also will connect city services, including maps and visitor information, on 25 interactive kiosks along the streetcar line and downtown, and a smart lighting system and video sensors for public safety and security, said Sprint. Sprint partnered with Cisco on the smart city initiative. “Sprint Wi-Fi will help streamline city operations, generate economic development, and improve the quality of life for Kansas City residents,” said Tim Donahue, Sprint president-Kansas and Missouri, in a news release.
