Here’s how much of O‘ahu you can reach from downtown Honolulu within 30 minutes driving a car versus riding the bus. If you want to reduce traffic, invest in public transit.
Mayor Blangiardi has appointed Dr. Kealoha Fox as the Resilience Office's new Deputy Director. Dr. Fox brings over 15 years of experience in Native Hawaiian health, climate policy, & social health integration, & we're thrilled to welcome her to our team! www8.honolulu.gov/mayor/mayor-bl…
Would it be controversial to say that Anaha is the coolest high rise in Honolulu?
How do businesses survive here without free parking? 😉
Did you know Hawai‘i residents can get a rebate of up to $500 on e-bikes and e-mopeds? KITV’s Multimodal Movement segment covers HDOT’s new program, aiming to make sustainable transportation affordable and accessible to low-income individuals. ulupono.com/newsletter-lis…

Something I see a lot in qualitative research is a lack of analysis. Basically a rundown of what's in the data, but without doing anything with it (analysis). It's the qualitative equivalent of descriptive stats. Short thread.
Last night, DTS and Honolulu Complete Streets held the first Community Workshop for the Keolu Drive Complete Streets Project at Kaʻelepulu Elementary School. Keolu Drive is home to many schools and community destinations. However, the street was designed primarily for
Small, yet big improvements are happening at an unsafe intersection in Waipahu. 😎
Can better street design save lives? Read the column to see how driving culture, road design, and urban planning play a key role in protecting pedestrians. usa.streetsblog.org/2024/10/02/opi…
Our newest transit-priority lane is coming soon on Kūhiō Avenue in Waikīkī! A single westbound (mauka-side) lane of Kūhiō Avenue, from Kapahulu Avenue to Launiu Street will be converted This new ʻEwa-bound bus lane will use red pavement markings and signage to give priority to
Wrapped up painting the largest set of curb extensions in Hawai‘i 🎨 🖌️ DTS mentioned that already drivers yielding to pedestrians crossing increased by 80% in the last two weeks. Really hoping to take this Tier 1 Pedestrian injury intersection off the list soon.

Assertions that “people preferred to drive” are guesses in the guise of explanations. A minority of motorists degraded streetcar service for the majority. KCPSC: “Practically the only cause of delay in service is due to unthinking motorists who block [streetcars’] progress.”
Your #UHManoa was recognized as a leader in sustainability in The Princeton Review's Guide to Green Colleges, based on a 2023–24 survey of nearly 600 institutions ➡️ bit.ly/3YskmXl #sustainableUH
One of the most obvious things to do if you really want to make cities better for people, and thus more successful, safe and enjoyable, is make our sidewalks bigger and better. This one is worth a read. #CitiesForPeople sociallifeproject.org/double-loaded-…
Micromobility can reshape our cities, replacing millions of cars and clearing the way for cleaner air, less congestion, and more walkable spaces.
Government city “planners” should be planning public spaces, not micromanaging private spaces. Good planning actions for a productive + abundant society: central visioning for streets, plazas, sidewalks, and parks; adding cafe lighting across alleys; and anything else on public…
Cyclists, be visible* on the roads. Front and rear lights, fluorescent vest, reflectors, ... And don't forget your helmet. *be careful to avoid the mistakes of motorists, who do not look at the road and will kill you without realising it. x.com/BikingJulien/s…
