<br /> • State of Hawaii declared Mamalah~a Highway a proposed "Bike Route", and <br /> recommends implementation ..o~~cun'ently with all resurfacing and construction <br /> projects. <br /> Solution: <br /> <br /> • Road plans for Waimea should be redesigned to meet minimum national and or <br /> State specifications for bicycle safety. (Guide for Development of Bicvcle Facilities, <br /> 1991, American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, <br /> Washington DC, 1991, or Bike Plan Hawaii 1994) <br /> • Creative design work by County engineers is needed to incorporate safety within <br /> existing right of way. Worst case: delete one proposed motor vehicle traffic <br /> lane (five are proposed) or acquire more right of way. <br /> • Request extension of deadline (if needed) for Federal funding to correct safety / <br /> liability situation: <br /> Your serious consideration of this safety and liability issue is greatly appreciated. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> 9-rl.. <br /> Ron Reilly <br /> Chairman, Mayoral Advisory Committee on Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety <br /> Enclosure: Waimea Bicycle Activities <br /> cc: Mayor Steven Yamashiro <br /> Donna F.
