PUNA COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Transportation: 4.4 Highways
Action 4.4.3.a (page 4-8)
(All of the following are recommendations to DOT)
Short Term (2008-2012)
Make interim intersection
improvements on Highways 11 and 130;
Reduce speed limit on Highway 130 to 45 mph between the Kea'au bypass and 'Ᾱinaloa Boulevard;
Conduct a study to determine the most efficacious way
to create greater highway safety for all travel modes, including a cost benefit analysis for each studied method, and consideration of a wide range of traffic calming features (including
roundabouts), highway widening, the use of frontage roads, and various types of intersection controls; and
Implement the Shoulder Lane conversion project between the Kea'au Bypass and
Shower Drive/Pohaku Drive as a reversible lane to accommodate AM and PM peak periods.
(4.4.1) Goals:
a) Highways have design features that improve traffic safety and reduce collisions,
particularly at intersections.
b) Highway design is more aesthetically pleasing and compatible with the natural and rural character of Puna.
c) Increased County and community influence
over highway planning and design decisions.
(4.4.2) Objectives:
Make intersection improvements along highways that allow sager access from intersecting streets as a priority over
traffic speed on the highway, giving preference to the use of roundabouts.
Consider roundabouts as a means to control private driveway access to major highways with higher traffic volumes,
such as Highway 130.
Use native landscaping for highway improvements and connectivity points, emphasizing the retention of native vegetation.
Incorporate traffic-calming features into
highway design in preference to signage and signalization, where possible.
