RE: H.C.R. No. 31
Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi
President of the Senate
Thirty—Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2023
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Transportation and Culture and the Arts, to
which was referred H.C.R. No. 31 entitled:
"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION URGING THE DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION TO CONSTRUCT AN ALL-WAY CROSSWALK ALONG THE
CROSS-STREETS OF KAHUALII STREET, WAIPIO POINT ACCESS ROAD,
AND FARRINGTON HIGHWAY,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent 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 the Department of Education, Department of Transportation,
and four individuals.
Your Committee finds that the area surrounding Waipahu High
School before and after the school day becomes heavily congested
with cars and pedestrians commuting through the area. Due to the
street design, students and individuals need to cross multiple
times to get to and from Waipahu High School, often overflowing
pedestrian islands. The high density of students and individuals
on pedestrian islands poses a significant safety concern, as
pedestrians may be pushed into oncoming traffic. This measure
urges alternative methods to alleviate safety concerns and traffic
congestion near Waipahu High School.
