URGING THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION SERVICES OF THE CITY AND COUNTY OF HONOLULU TO CONDUCT A TRAFFIC MITIGATION AND CALMING STUDY TO EVALUATE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CERTAIN TRAFFIC MITIGATION AND CALMING DEVICES IN AND AROUND PAIWA STREET IN WAIPAHU, OAHU.

This House Resolution (HR 53) urges Honolulu's Department of Transportation Services to study traffic safety on Paiwa Street in Waipahu, Oahu. It asks the department to evaluate specific traffic calming devices like speed bumps, raised crosswalks, and red lights to address resident concerns about speeding, high traffic volume, and pedestrian/cyclist safety. The resolution requests a report with findings and recommendations to the Legislature by early 2026. This is a procedural request (not a law) directly affecting Waipahu residents, businesses, and school commuters who use Paiwa Street.
