PUNA COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN Transportation: 4.2 Mass Transit   Action 4.2.3.k (page 4-4) Expand Hele-On transit service to include regular service to both the Hilo and Keahole <br />International Airports from all existing and future service routes.  (4.2.1) Goals: a) Mass transportation options are increased for all Puna residents. b) Transit service and <br />improvements reinforce and complement the development of village/town centers. c) A greater percentage of commuters use mass transit. (4.2.2) Objectives: Convert the present <br />Hele-On bus routes and services to a “hub-and-spoke” system, with paratransit vehicles bringing passengers from outlying areas to Hele-On Bus hubs and also distributing passengers within <br />the Hilo area. Coordinate County transit services with special needs paratransit services and school transportation. Provide park-and-ride lots at key regional sites to promote commuter <br />ridership. Strengthen County capability and resources to operate the transit system and increase ridership. Ensure that pedestrians can access bus stops safely.
