Connected Community
The Task Force’s vision to make Ho‘opili a connected community included:
• Connect the City of Kapolei with the surrounding communities of ‘Ewa, ‘Ewa Beach, ‘Ewa Villages, Honouliuli, Kalaeloa, Kunia, Makakilo, Waipahu, West Loch, and the rest of O‘ahu;
• Make it easy for residents to connect to local shops, parks, schools and employment areas, such as the City of Kapolei and the planned University of Hawai‘i at West O‘ahu, through a walkable, transit–oriented community with pedestrian/bicycle paths;
• Acknowledge the transportation issues in ‘Ewa, and provide a thoughtful and real response to these issues; and
• Use technology to connect businesses and residents with others to create a healthy “live–work” environment.
