RE: S.C.R. No. 38
S. D. 1
Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi
President of the Senate
Thirty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2025
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Transportation and Culture and the Arts, to
which was referred S.C.R. No. 38 entitled:
"SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION URGING THE COUNTY OF MAUI TO
PRIORITIZE THE DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING OF THE NORTHERN
TERMINUS OF THE KIHEI NORTH-SOUTH COLLECTOR ROAD,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to urge the County
of Maui to prioritize the development and planning of the northern
terminus of the North-South Collector Road.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from the Kihei Community Association and one individual.
Your Committee finds that residents and visitors of South
Maui have experienced increasing traffic congestion, particularly
in North and South Kihei where the lack of alternative routes has
led to situations where car accidents or natural hazards, such as
flash floods, can severely impede mobility, leaving residents
unable to leave their neighborhoods and hindering emergency
response efforts. Your Committee further finds that despite
previous funding allocations, progress has been limited, and the
critical northern terminus of the North-South Collector Road has
yet to be planned or identified. By urging the prioritization of
construction on the North-South Collector Road, this measure will

Committee on Transportation and Culture and the Arts that is

and purpose of S.C.R. No. 38, as amended herein, and recommends
