RE: H.R. No. 45
H.D. 1
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty—Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2024
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred H.R.
No. 45 entitled:
“HOUSE RESOLUTION URGING THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO
INSTALL SPEED BUMPS AND SPEED LIMIT SIGNAGE ON THE PORTION OF
KAPOLEI PARKWAY BETWEEN KAPOLEI HIGH SCHOOL AND KAPOLEI
MIDDLE SCHOOL,”
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to urge the Department of
Transportation to install speed bumps and speed limit signage on
the portion of Kapolei Parkway between Kapolei High School and
Kapolei Middle School.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from the Department of Transportation; Kanehili Community
Homestead Association; and three individuals. Your Committee
received comments on this measure from one individual.
Your Committee finds that the stretch of Kapolei Parkway
between Kapolei High School and Kapolei Middle School experiences
a significant volume of traffic, particularly during morning and
afternoon school hours. Your Committee further finds that many
drivers exceed posted speed limits, creating an unsafe situation
for pedestrians crossing the street. Your Committee believes that

installing speed bumps and clear and well-maintained signage will
reduce speeding and increase pedestrian safety in this area.
Your Committee has amended this measure by:
(1) Amending its title in accordance with its amended
purpose;
(2) Requesting the City and County of Honolulu, as well as
the Department of Transportation, to install speed bumps
and speed limit on the portion of Kapolei Parkway
between Kapolei High School and Kapolei Middle School;
and
(3) Making technical, nonsubstantive amendments for the
purposes of clarity, consistency, and style.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your
Committee concurs with the intent and purpose of H.R. No. 45, as
amended herein, and recommends its adoption in the form attached
hereto as H.R. No. 45, H.D. 1.
Respectfully submitted on
behalf of the members of the
