Subject: Puna alternate routes, beyond the puna emergency access route through analoa and Hawaiian acres
subdivisions
According to the county of Hawaii puna is expected to double by 2035 in population which typically means more than
one car per household just something to think about.
I have attended meetings where state representatives swore up and down the pahoa highway was only going to get
roundabouts there was no way in hell they were going to be any intersection lights fact.
I was there 35 years ago with Jenny and Bonnie in public meetings to update the puna community development plan,
and there was much discussion about alternatives roots one was route 148
I believe more or less right road to the saddle road another was call koamahana Street route from Hilo to roughly the
lower intersection of the keaau bypass below where Shipman has a 300 home subdivision plan alongside shipment
industrial.
Meanwhile Shipman can't let go of railroad from keaau down past pahoa town, a side thought maybe there's a
conspiracy just maybe?The state of Hawaii can't resolve the transportation issues of the lower puna and Shipman can't
release public lands railroad avenue or public land back to the public?
