District 7 Staff City promises brighter lights for deadly road North King Street in Kalihi will be better lit after three pedestrian deaths. (Via StarAdvertiser)

It's a hazardous stretch of Honolulu road where many kupuna often cross the street or look

to catch buses in the early morning hours.

Now, with the recent deaths of three older pedestrians hit by vehicles along North King

Street in Kalihi, city leaders say they'll install some brighter streetlights there in the coming

days to help better illuminate that area.

Five LED streetlights will go up on King Street near Gulick Avenue and Richard Lane. Mayor

Kirk Caldwell called it an "interim action" to address the hazards of King Street in Kalihi,

even as city transit officials have already begun to study ways to make that area safer for

pedestrians.

"We're not going to wait to address the problems," Caldwell said during a news conference

Monday.

On June 26 a 55-year-old man was killed when he was hit by a city bus in Kalihi. His death

followed two other early morning fatal collisions on the same stretch of King, both in

February.

On Feb. 26 a 71-year-old woman died after she was hit by a garbage truck. And on Feb. 4 a

67-year-old woman died after she was struck by a pickup driver.

All three victims were in crosswalks when they were hit.

(…) The investigations into those fatal accidents aren't done, city leaders said Monday, but

they see the LED lights as an interim solution to address growing community complaints.

City officials will host a public meeting 5:30 p.m. July 15 at the Neal S. Blaisdell Center's

Pikake Room to help DTS rank the top 20 street sections in Honolulu in most need of

upgrades, as part of the city's Complete Streets program, Formby said. He added that "we

wouldn't be surprised if King in Kalihi eventually topped that list."

In April the Honolulu City Council's Transportation Committee considered a resolution urging

the department to conduct a traffic analysis of North King in Kalihi, but officials said Monday

that it was deferred when the committee received assurances that the department was

already moving forward with studies to improve the corridor.

For those living in the City and County’s Council District 7, the drop-off convenience center for refuse and recycling is Keehi Transfer Station for residents to dispose of their household rubbish. Residents may use any of these locations free of charge. Upon arrival, residents will be directed by the City attendant or security guard to the respective containers or areas to dump or place their waste/recyclables.

Keehi Transfer Station (accepts auto batteries and combustible material ONLY) 606 Middle Street (entrance under the H-1 highway near theBus depot. Tel: (808)-845-1162 Hours: 12 to 6 p.m., Monday through Saturday (closed Sundays, Christmas and New Year’s Day)

*Transfer stations are open to commercial waste haulers and residents. The rules and procedures for residents using City transfer stations are similar to convenience centers with the exception that Keehi Transfer Station only accepts combustible waste and used auto batteries.

What you can bring Auto batteries: Please limit the auto batteries to 2 per month Acceptable Refuse for “Combustible” bin: Paper. Cardboard, cloth, plastic, plastic bags of trash (unless filled with noncombustible refuse), wood (2”x4” size or smaller; maximum 4’ length), roofing material (wood shingles and asphalt paper)

General Rules and Procedures

Convenience centers are reserved for residential waste material only. Commercial or business refuse (from tree trimmers, roofers, plumbers, small stores, farmers, etc.) is strictly prohibited.

*When using a Convenience Center, please follow these rules:

Plan your delivery: Separate your combustibles, noncombustibles and green waste. Upon your arrival, the convenience center security guard/attendant will inspect your load and instruct you to deposit your materials in the appropriate refuse bins/storage areas.

Obey the security guard’s instructions: The success of the City’s recycling program depends on everyone’s cooperation. Depositing rubbish in the wrong bins will contaminate recyclables and could affect your convenience center privileges in the future.

Make room for others: Cut or breakdown long, large items, such as tree branches, empty boxes, lumber and pipes, so that they will fit compactly in the refuse bins. Remember, convenience centers have a limited capacity.

Think safety at all times: Drive slowly, watch for directions by the security guard and obey all traffic control signs and pavement markings. While unloading your vehicle, be careful of your footing. Children and pets must remain inside of vehicles at all times.

Set a good example for others: Clean up after you’re done. Picking up rubbish around your vehicle will help to keep the convenience center clean.

Be patient: If the convenience center is closed, consider using the City landfill. Refuse transfer station, another convenience center or return later. Heavy usage or mechanical breakdowns can cause temporary unscheduled closures.
