  • Honolulu's Mayor Ends Proposal for Rail Line in Downtown Are
    HONOLULU'S MAYOR ENDS PROPOSAL FOR RAIL LINE IN DOWNTOWN ARE... Page 1 of 2 June 28, 1981 HONOLULU'S MAYOR ENDS PROPOSAL FOR RAIL LINE IN DOWNTOWN AREA By WALLACE TURNER Mayor Eileen Anderson has declined to accept $5 million in Federal funds for an engineering survey, ending plans for a commuter rail system through downtown Honolulu. ''Why spend $5 million on a system that won't be built?'' Mayor Anderson asked recently in defending her position. ''We don't need a $5 million study to make our decision.'' She said she had decided to expand the bus system, adding 80 to 100 new vehicles to the 400 in operation. In the decade when it was under consideration by the administration of the previous Mayor, Frank F. Fasi, the rail system became known as HART, an acronym for Honolulu Area Rapid Transit. Plans called for a system of various lengths, the greatest being a 23-mile run between Aloha Stadium at Pearl City and Hawaii Kai to the east, beyond Diamond Head. Honolulu lies along the lower slopes of headlands so that traffic moving east and west must pass through narrow corridors. As a result the roads are extremely congested in the morning and evening. Cars Popular on Island ''There are about 400,000 vehicles on this island,'' said Roy Parker, the head of Honolulu's transportation department. ''We are like Los Angeles about cars. Over one period, when we measured that the Oahu population had gone up 100 percent, we found that vehicle registrations had gone up 165 percent.'' When Mayor Anderson took office in January, the issue was whether to do the preliminary engineering for the first stretch of HART, eight miles running through the downtown area from Honolulu International Airport to the University of Hawaii.

  • My Drift Title: Mayor Race 2020 Written By: Jerry D
    My Drift Title: Mayor Race 2020 Written by: Jerry D. Petersen Date: 10 Oct 2020 Article Number: 344-2020-22 The most important Hawaii race is the 2020 Honolulu mayoral election that will determine the Mayor of the City and County of Honolulu for the 4-year term commencing in January 2021. Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, the state of Hawaii and especially Honolulu has more problems to deal with than anybody can remember. Here is a partial list of the primary issues the new mayor is going to be faced with: • People are out of work and broke • Many businesses are closing for good • Need to get the tourists back to Hawaii and the economy going again • The cost of living has always been too high • Homelessness is out of control • Honolulu rail costs keep going up with no completion date in sight • Traffic congestion keeps getting worse • Hawaii has a meth drug epidemic • Oahu is running out of places to dump our garbage • There are junk cars and trash all over the place • Climate change – Hawaii’s beautiful beaches are disappearing If you are one of the few people who read my articles without any interest in Hawaii, you can probably find something better to do than reading about our mayor candidates. Bye. The purpose of this article is to provide information about Rick Blangiardi and Keith Amemiya so that us Oahu voters can elect the best man for the job. I will try to be unbiased which should not be too hard since I like both candidates.
