Requesting The Department Of Transportation And Department Of Transportation Of The County Of Maui To Collaborate With The Kihei Community Association In The Planning And Implementation Of The Kihei Mauka Road Project.
Impact
Currently, Kihei is experiencing significant transportation issues, exacerbated by frequent flooding and road closures that hinder daily commutes and impact the quality of life for its residents. HCR201 aims to provide a solution to these challenges by proposing the Kihei Mauka Road as an alternative to the heavily utilized South Kihei Road. This project is viewed as a critical infrastructure improvement and has been prioritized by the KCA for the year 2025, with expectations of enhancing connectivity and fostering smart growth in the area.
Summary
House Concurrent Resolution 201 (HCR201) requests the Department of Transportation and the County of Maui's Department of Transportation to collaborate with the Kihei Community Association (KCA) on the planning and implementation of the Kihei Mauka Road project. The Kihei Community Association, a nonprofit organization established in 1960, aims to enhance the development and maintenance of Kihei as a desirable residential area. This resolution points to the community's effort to address growing transportation challenges in the region, particularly the need for alternative routes to alleviate traffic congestion and improve overall access for residents and visitors alike.
Contention
The collaborative approach outlined in HCR201 seeks to ensure that the planning and implementation of the Kihei Mauka Road is in alignment with community needs and sustainable development practices. It emphasizes the importance of incorporating community feedback and addressing environmental concerns, which are vital aspects of local governance. By formally engaging state and county transportation departments with the KCA, the resolution recognizes the necessity of unified efforts in infrastructure development to maintain a healthy balance between growth and community well-being.
