yesterday work began on putting up concrete barriers at Laniakea
beach. This is supposed to help with the congestion and traffic
problem there. When we'd first heard about this, it didn't seem like
a good idea and still doesn't.
This has been a problem that's only gotten worse as more and more
tourist try to escape Waikiki. Tour buses parked there, dropping off
huge crowds to cross the street where there isn't a crosswalk.
Now where are all these people going to park?
Where are the local fishermen and surfers going to park?
there isn't parking on the makai side of the road.
into the the residential areas on the Haleiwa and Sunset sides of
the beach?
8 years ago I started going to meetings and heard about this and what the
best solution would be…to re-align Kam Hiway. Put a parking lot where the one
is now and the existing road and have the traffic rerouted mauka of it.
This "temporary" solution isn't really going to help, probably only cause
a whole new set of problem.
