BE IT
ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
SECTION 1. The legislature finds that Farrington highway is not just the sole major roadway on Oahu's leeward coast, it is also the sole access route that links the Waianae district to Ewa and points east toward metropolitan Honolulu. Although west Oahu has experienced exponential growth and development over the last twenty years, transportation infrastructure has not kept pace. Traffic volume on Farrington highway has increased from an average of twenty thousand vehicles per day in 2000, to fifty thousand vehicles per day in 2016.
The purpose of this Act is to appropriate funds for capital improvement projects in the Waianae district to address traffic mitigation.
SECTION 2. The director of finance is authorized to issue general obligation bonds in the sum of $ or so much thereof as may be necessary and the same sum or so much thereof as may be necessary is appropriated for fiscal year 2022-2023 for the purpose of capital improvement projects in the Waianae district to address traffic mitigation, as follows:
(1) Farrington highway corridor infrastructure.
Plans $
Total funding $
The sum appropriated for this capital improvement project shall be expended by the department of transportation.
SECTION 3. The appropriation made for the capital improvement project authorized by this Act shall not lapse at the end of the fiscal year for which the appropriation is made; provided that all moneys from the appropriation unencumbered as of June 30, 2024, shall lapse as of that date.
SECTION 4. This Act shall take effect on January 1, 2050.
