A subcommittee of HART tentatively endorses extending the Skyline system to Ala Moana Center and to Ka Makana Aliʻi shopping center in Kapolei.

The ballot measure to approve a type of bond financing used in 48 other states comes amid a concerted push by city and state officials to develop housing around Honolulu’s Skyline.

How HART’s rail is displacing the creative community.

A recent analysis suggests the total cost of rail may rise to $10.19 billion, about $111 million more than the current budget.

A consultant that monitors the project for the Federal Transit Administration reports the entire rail line will probably open a year later than the city planned.

Three years after opening, the city’s Skyline transit system has endured its share of operational hiccups.

The new report envisions innovative rail extensions to reach much more of Oʻahu’s population but the HART board is asking for more study in anticipation of seeking more public funding.

Mayor Rick Blangiardi pledged Wednesday night to make city services work faster for Oʻahu’s residents.

Gov. Josh Green is negotiating an agreement with a Japanese rail conglomerate to work on transit-oriented development along the Skyline.

The city center segment of the $10B rail project is supposed to open in March 2031, but an outside consultant questions whether that plan is still feasible.
