REQUESTING THE HONOLULU AUTHORITY FOR RAPID TRANSPORTATION TO EXTEND THE SKYLINE RAIL PROJECT TO THE WESTSIDE OF OʻAHU.

This House Resolution (HR 37) requests the Honolulu Authority for Rapid Transportation (HART) to extend the Skyline rail project to the Westside of Oʻahu, specifically including the communities of Nānākuli, Koʻolina, Maʻili, and Waiʻanae. It does not create new law or allocate funding but formally asks HART to consider this extension to address commuting challenges and improve transit access for residents in these areas. The resolution cites existing traffic congestion, limited transit options, and the need for better emergency mobility as reasons for the request. It directly affects Westside Oʻahu residents who face longer commutes and reduced transportation choices. As a procedural resolution, it has no binding effect but expresses legislative support for the proposed extension.
