Honolulu, Hawaii

                , 2012

 

RE:   H.C.R. No. 100

 

 

 

 

Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Sixth State Legislature

Regular Session of 2012

State of Hawaii

 

Sir:

 

     Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred H.C.R. No. 100 entitled:

 

"HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU TO PROHIBIT PARKING ON DATE STREET BETWEEN KAPIOLANI BOULEVARD AND LA‘AU STREET DURING THE MORNING HOURS TO ALLEVIATE TRAFFIC CONGESTION,"

 

begs leave to report as follows:

 

     The purpose of this measure is to request that the City and County of Honolulu prohibit parking along a portion of Date Street during the morning hours.

 

     One individual testified in support.

 

     I'olani School has two drop off/pick up locations for 1,800 students arriving every school day which results in tremendous traffic congestion on the various streets feeding these two locations. One of these drop off points is located on La'au Place with egress/ingress solely from Date Street. While there are two lanes open during the morning hours on Date Street on the mauka side, there is only one lane open on the makai side because vehicles are allowed to park along Date Street between Kapiolani Boulevard and La'au Street. Your committee finds that prohibiting parking on this portion of Date Street during the morning hours would greatly alleviate traffic congestion in the area.

 

     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.C.R. No. 100 and recommends its adoption.

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Transportation,
