Upcoming and Current Projects

Wahiawā

Walkway Improvements

The City and County of Honolulu has roughly 900 miles of missing walkways along our local roadways, and building them is a complex and costly endeavor. The new Oʻahu Pedestrian Plan prioritizes our missing walkways based on an analysis that considers factors such as bus routes, proximity to schools, and crash history. Moving forward, pending the availability of funds, the City’s Complete Streets program will explore opportunities to construct walkways along these priority segments, either as stand-alone improvements or part of a periodic roadway and pavement rehabilitation projects.

Locations identified for safety improvements are:

California Avenue (ʻOhai Street to Karsten Drive)
Kilani Avenue (Kaliponi Street to Māhele Street)

Mililani

Mililani Mauka Improvements

The City will be constructing edge-of-lane/parking lines and striped curb extension improvements on Lehiwa Drive, Mākaʻikaʻi Street, and Kaʻapeha Street as part of an upcoming roadway repaving project. Additionally, new curb ramps and a new marked crosswalk at the trail crossing of Mākaʻikaʻi Street will be installed. Project will begin in 2024.
