Urging The State Of Hawaii, City And County Of Honolulu, Federal Entities, And Private Land Owners To Work Together To Immediately Open The Section Of The Waianae Coast Emergency Access Road Extending Paakea Road Out To Lualualei Naval Road For Public Use On A Permanent Basis.
Impact
The resolution is motivated by the ongoing traffic congestion faced by Leeward motorists due to frequent lane closures on Farrington Highway caused by accidents, severe weather, and construction. By utilizing the Emergency Access Road more consistently, it is anticipated that community safety will improve by providing an alternative route for emergency vehicles and regular traffic alike. This could mitigate the challenges posed by the current traffic conditions, enhancing overall public safety in the region.
Summary
Senate Resolution 53 urges the State of Hawaii, the City and County of Honolulu, federal entities, and private land owners to collaborate in opening the Waianae Coast Emergency Access Road permanently. This section of roadway, which stretches from Paakea Road to Lualualei Naval Road, has the potential to serve as a parallel route for the overburdened Farrington Highway, which is currently the sole highway providing access to the Leeward Coast of Oahu.
Contention
Despite the urgency of this resolution, factors such as jurisdictional authority, funding for improvements, and coordination among various stakeholders could lead to potential challenges. Previous resolutions, like House Concurrent Resolution No. 197, had already indicated the need for a detailed analysis of the emergency access road's use, but progress has been limited. Collaboration between local government and federal entities will be essential to address concerns and secure the necessary resources to open this route permanently.
