    How many more mains will be bursting when the train comes vibrating down to Ala Moana.

    Small potatoes, these sewage lines!

    Think of the JOY and PRIDE we’ll have when we see that rail car lumbering (extra) slowly on the guideway, screeching and crunching along, shuddering at every stop to let the homeless friends with severe B. O. and psychotic moments on or off to enjoy their day while you have to figure out how you’re going to carry your day’s grocery shopping while standing for 18 miles!!!!

    Honolulu: FINALLY A WORLD CLASS CITY!!!!!

      People generally do their grocery shopping near home. You hop off the train and pick up your groceries between the station and home, or, you get your groceries at another time that is convenient for you.

      you can use those metal baskets with wheels that the grandmas use on the bus. if the grandmas can get the groceries on the bus then you can too

    I wish our self serving politicians (political donations) would fix our infrastructure instead of forcing the broken train down our throats.

    Go ahead & build more of those “affordable” condos. The tenants won’t be able to enter or leave their buildings when the road collapses.
