Central Oʻahu
Overview
The City and County of Honolulu has several ongoing complete Streets improvements in the works for the Kunia, Waipiʻo, Mililani, and Wahiawā neighborhoods. Upcoming improvements include new walkways along Kilani and California avenues and edge-of-lane line improvements in Mililani. These projects will contribute to create a network of streets that are safe and convenient for all people, whether they are traveling by foot, bicycle, transit, or ride-share, and regardless of age or ability.
- Safe and convenient for people of all ages and abilities
- Accommodating to all modes, including foot, bicycle, transit, and automobile
- Integrated with the community’s vision and sense of place
- Supportive and community health and transportation equity
The Opportunity
The Department of Facility Maintenance has an upcoming project to repave California Avenue from Kamehameha Highway into Wahiawā Heights, which provides a near-term opportunity to implement some of the community’s desired traffic safety changes through new roadway striping. These improvements include parking-protected bicycle lanes and travel lane reconfiguration in the commercial corridor, striped curb extensions with delineator posts at busy intersections, and an uphill bicycle lane to ʻIliahi Elementary School.
