Check out the proposed changes in Windward bus routes

County Dept. of Transportation Services made their presentation concerning proposed changes in bus routes and Kaneohe riders will take a hit.

It looks like internal transportation within the Kaneohe community may be improved except for a proposed transfer hub to be created on Kawa Street behind the Post Office. Every bus going through Kaneohe will be routed by way of Kahuhipa street to Kawa St. as a central point for riders to transfer making an already congested area much worse IMO.

Because my Kaneohe Neighborhood Board District includes Kaneohe Bay Drive, I'm particularly interested in route 56. 56 will be replace with a short haul bus service that requires a transfer at Aiikahi Shopping Center in order to get to town. The only bus going to town from Kailua will be one traveling on Kamehameha Hwy and over the Pali.

Kalaheo High School students will have to transfer also.
