A Vision for Ka‘ahumanu Avenue
Since August 2020, we’ve connected with thousands of Maui residents, sharing information about the Ka‘ahumanu Ave Community Corridor study and gathering your feedback through surveys, a virtual town hall and community meetings, and small group conversations. You’ve told us what’s working, what could be improved, and what you hope to see in the future.
Welcome!
The Ka‘ahumanu Ave Community Corridor is an exciting initiative to develop a community-supported vision for affordable housing and new transportation options on Maui’s busiest corridor. We look forward to working with you to envision a new future for the 2.5 miles of Ka‘ahumanu Avenue that connect Kahului and Wailuku.
This website will keep you connected to everything the team is doing. You can:
-

Why now?
Maui is growing, and we are facing challenges like never before. We’re in the midst of a global pandemic and an affordable housing crisis. But we are resilient. We can provide opportunities for economic development and new jobs and homes, supported with new travel options for people to keep Maui livable and accessible. The Ka‘ahumanu Ave Community Corridor provides an opportunity for us to do this and so much more. Join us!
