STAND. COM. REP. NO. 1014
Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2005
RE: H.C.R. No. 51
Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives
Twenty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2005
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 51 entitled:
"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE OAHU METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION TO STUDY THE FEASIBILITY OF AN ALTERNATE ROUTE OF INGRESS TO AND EGRESS FROM MILILANI MAUKA,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this concurrent resolution is to request the Oahu Metropolitan Planning Organization (OMPO) to perform a study on the feasibility of an alternate route of ingress to and egress from the Mililani Mauka area.
The Department of Transportation testified in support of this measure. OMPO submitted comments.
The fast-growing community of Mililani Mauka is served by a single route of ingress and egress which results in traffic congestion during peak hours. With continued growth in the area and increased subdivision development, the number of automobiles is expected to increase in the very near future, only compounding the problem. Your Committee believes that a second access road to this community will help alleviate some of this congestion and that a feasibility study needs to be conducted to determine if this is the direction in which to proceed.
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.C.R. No. 51 and recommends its adoption.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Transportation,
____________________________ JOSEPH M. SOUKI, Chair |
