Honolulu's light rail system... (sadly, most of the possibilities for offloading all the tourist related traffic into Waikiki is not yet built. (I suspect, but do not know, this is because of lack of available transportation routes)

Anyone here know how the first segment is working out?

@ai6yr Oahu is the most depressing place I've visited in my life, esp a place that _should_ be paradise. There is a 10+ lane highway out of Honolulu but you're ON AN ISLAND.

It's really amazing how the auto and petroleum industries (with a lot of help from the federal gov’t) have completely screwed up a 600 sq mile island

@mkristensson @ai6yr my understanding is the military base is a big reason for the big “interstate” highway
