COM. REP. NO. 1511
Honolulu, Hawaii
, 2025
RE: H.R. No. 37
Honorable Nadine K. Nakamura
Speaker, House of Representatives
Thirty-Third State Legislature
Regular Session of 2025
State of Hawaii
Madame:
Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred H.R. No. 37 entitled:
"HOUSE RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE HONOLULU AUTHORITY FOR RAPID TRANSPORTATION TO EXTEND THE SKYLINE RAIL PROJECT TO THE WESTSIDE OF OʻAHU,"
begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure
from one individual.
Your Committee finds that the existing route of the Skyline rail project does not adequately serve the growing communities of Nānākuli, Ko ʻOlina, Māʻili, and the Westside of Oʻahu. An extension of the project to the Westside of Oʻahu will further alleviate traffic congestion and provide an alternative means of egress and ingress to these communities.
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.R. No. 37 and recommends that it be referred to your Committee on Finance.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Transportation,
