Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell is asking the City Council for a total of $150 million over the next fiscal year to repair damaged and neglected city streets on the island of Oahu. Caldwell’s long term plan call for the repaving of approximately 1,520 lane-miles of city streets over the next five years. Caldwell stated, “This is an enormous increase in the amount of work done. It is certainly something that I will fight for and I will encourage my colleagues to fight for as well. Road repaving is not real sexy. People want to talk about new things, new buildings and new parks, redesigning Waikiki. But it’s the everyday things that a city is about. It’s about sewage, it’s about water, garbage pickup, and it’s about road repaving. People feel the difference when you address the need.”
