Statewide Long-Range Land Transportation Plan and
Regional Long-Range Land Transportation Plan for the Island of Kauai

The Hawaii Department of Transportation is providing notice of virtual public meetings for updates to the Statewide Long-Range Land Transportation Plan and the Regional Long-Range Land Transportation Plan for the island of Kauai.

The statewide and regional long-range land transportation plans, titled Statewide Federal-Aid Highways 2035 Transportation Plan and Federal-Aid Highways 2035 Transportation Plans for the Districts of Maui, Hawaii, and Kauai, were last updated in July 2014. Since then, Hawaii as a state has experienced changes in population, development, and travel needs. The Plan embraces the values of the people of Hawaii and identifies existing and future needs for the movement of people and goods utilizing all modes of land-based transportation.

These meetings will allow input from stakeholders and communities across the island to assist in the planning process for the State’s and Kauai island’s transportation system’s facilities and programs, and outline policies and investment strategies to proactively address projected future needs. Public meetings were held for the Kauai Plan in February 2025, where an overview of the Plan, goals and objectives, and existing and forecast conditions were shared, and a survey was provided to solicit feedback on needs and opportunities. This second round of public meetings for the Kauai Plan will focus on sharing the results from the survey, outcomes from the scenario planning task, financial forecast, and funding strategies.

The virtual meetings for public input on the Statewide Plan and the Kauai Plan
will be on the following dates and times:

Statewide Plan:
Tuesday, March 10th, Microsoft Teams
Afternoon meeting: 12 p.m. to 1 p.m.
Evening meeting: 6 p.m. to 7 p.m.

Kauai Plan:
