RE: H.R. No. 32
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty—Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2023
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Cornrriittee on Transportation, to which was referred H.R.
No. 32 entitled:
“HOUSE RESOLUTION URGING THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO
CONSTRUCT AN ALL-WAY CROSSWALK ALONG THE CROSS-STREETS OF
KAHUALTI STREET, WAIPIO POINT ACCESS ROAD, AND FARRINGTON
HIGHWAY,”
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to urge the Department of
Transportation to construct an all-way crosswalk along the cross-
streets of Kahualii Street, Waipio Point Access Road, and
Farrington Highway.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from two individuals.
Your Committee finds that pedestrian safety is an important
issue for all communities in Hawaii and the crosswalk adjacent to
Waipahu High School is of particular concern because of the many
students who walk to and from school. The area surrounding
Waipahu High School is heavily congested with pedestrians who are
overflowing the pedestrian island in the morning when school
begins and, in the afternoon, when school ends. Your Committee
further finds that the construction of an all—way crosswalk or
pedestrian scramble is an effective method of reducing the chance
of vehicles and pedestrians colliding.
