RE: H.C.R. No. 161
I
Honorable Scott K. Saiki
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-Second State Legislature
Regular Session of 2023
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred
H.C.R. No. 161 entitled:
“HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION URGING THE DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION AND THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION SERVICES
OF THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU TO CONSTRUCT ELEVATED
CROSSWALKS ALONG MEHEULA PARKWAY NEAR MILILANI HIGH SCHOOL,”
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to urge the Department of
Transportation and Department of Transportation Services of the
City and County of Honolulu to construct elevated crosswalks along
Meheula Parkway near Mililani High School.
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from the Department of Transportation and State Council on
Developmental Disabilities.
Your Committee finds that there are several high-traffic
roadways around Mililani High School that pose a significant risk
to students who walk to and from school. Your Committee further
finds that raised crosswalks help make pedestrians more visible to
drivers and can reduce crashes by forty-five percent.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your
Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your
2023—2957 HCR161 HSCR HMSO
 STAND. CaM.
