RE: H.R. No. 37
Honorable Nadine K. Nakamura
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2025
State of Hawaii
Madame:
Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred H.R.
No. 37 entitled:
“HOUSE RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE HONOLULU AUTHORITY FOR RAPID
TRANSPORTATION TO EXTEND THE SKYLINE RAIL PROJECT TO THE
WESTSIDE OF O’AHU,”
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to request the Honolulu
Authority for Rapid Transportation to extend the Skyline rail
project to the Westside of O’ahu.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from one individual.
Your Committee finds that the existing route of the Skyline
rail project does not adequately serve the growing communities of
Nãnäkuli, Ko ‘Olina, 4ã’ili, and the Westside of O’ahu. An
extension of the project to the Westside of O’ahu will further
alleviate traffic congestion and provide an alternative means of
egress and ingress to these communities.
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. 37 and
recommends that it be referred to your Committee on Finance.
