Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say
Speaker, House of Representatives

Regular Session of 2005
State of Hawaii
Sir:
Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred S.C.R. No. 27, S.D. 2, entitled:
"SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO STUDY AND EVALUATE EXISTING TRAFFIC CONDITIONS IN THE SOUTH KONA AREA OF HAWAII AND PREPARE A TRAFFIC SOLUTION PLAN TO MINIMIZE EXISTING AND FUTURE TRAFFIC PROBLEMS,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to request the Department of Transportation to study and evaluate existing traffic conditions in South Kona and prepare a traffic solution plan to minimize existing and future traffic problems in the area.
Your Committee received favorable testimony on this Concurrent Resolution from the Department of Transportation.
Your Committee finds that the state highway traffic corridor in South Kona has experienced increased traffic congestion due to a growing population and increased development in the area. To address this concern, the Concurrent Resolution requests the Department of Transportation to study and evaluate existing traffic conditions in the area, compare the data with current and projected population data, and develop a traffic solution plan that will accommodate the present and future needs of the South Kona community.
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 S.C.R. No. 27, S.D. 2, and recommends its adoption.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Transportation,
____________________________ JOSEPH M. SOUKI, Chair |
