Kapolei Mass Transit: What Technology to Use?

Kapolei real estate controversy

Right now, Kapolei is in the midst of a bit of a real estae controversy. Kapolei mass transit is coming, in order to help manage the growth that Kapolei expects to see over the next two decades. However, the mayor and the city council are scuffling over the best way to implement the Kapolei mass transit system.

The city council hasn’t made any decisions regarding the type of mass transit rail technology, and the mayor is pushing his own ideas. The Star Bulletin reports on the options being considered for the Kapolei mass transit system:

At Wednesday’s meeting the Council failed to make its final decision on the technology among steel on steel, rubber-tire bus or magnetic levitation for the elevated system running from Kapolei to Ala Moana.


The mayor prefers steel on steel.
