The City and County of Honolulu Department of Design and Construction (DDC) is integrating Complete Streets solutions along Kamehameha Highway. The Rehabilitation of Streets, Unit 93 project will take place between the ‘Ōpae‘ula Bridge (“Twin Bridges”) and Anahulu River Bridge within Hale‘iwa Town. These improvements will enhance pedestrian connectivity and promote an active pedestrian-oriented commercial street frontage for the many residents and visitors in town to shop, experience its rustic and architectural heritage, and access nearby beaches.
Project improvements include repaving of the roadway, paving the shoulders with permeable concrete pavers, concrete or asphalt (based on site conditions), installation of raised concrete curbs between the roadway and shoulders, a subdrainage system, and underground stormwater storage tanks.
A public meeting is planned for Wednesday, December 11, 2024 at 6:30 pm, in the Waialua Elementary School Cafeteria (67-020 Waialua Beach Road). The purpose of the meeting is to provide an overview and update on the project plans to enhance pedestrian connectivity, promote an active pedestrian-oriented commercial street frontage as well as mitigate stormwater ponding on Kamehameha Highway.
