The idea of the mass transit isn't ONLY to redfuce cars on the road, but to give transportation to those who have limited or no transportation an opportunity...
Think of all those people in HOVE who could work in either Kona or Hilo if a trolley were available? HPP could be changed in a major way. Initially, you have trolley stops only in tghe circle around the island, with large parking lots at tro9lley stations. When the parking becomes inadequate because there are SOOOO many cars, you run a line down into the area. Example... down the three major roads into HPP.... it could be done and it is amazing how fast it does pay for itself. San Diego charges $1 each way. Lots cheaper than a car!!! I say look into it.
Just another day in P A R A D I S E !!

I want to be the kind of woman that, when my feet
hit the floor each morning, the devil says
"Oh Crap, She's up!"
