Manny Mattos was the fellow on the Mynah Bird show.
He is a former Oahu Police Officer as well is on the Puna Traffic Safety Committee and was the PCDP Chairman (according to the paper work I have) as well is a member of the Sierra Club.
I didn't hear the show, but it sounds like he hit it on the head.
The person I believe your talking about is Dina Lau so I think her email would actually be dina.lau@hawaii.gov However, I don't have that in front of me right now.
Larry Brown will be giving the presentation on the PCDP.
I hope your able to make it to the next H-130 Meeting on Monday, October 27th at 6:00 pm Keaau Elementary School Cafeteria.
I'm not sure about the widening he may have mentioned... what is going to happen as far as I understand is that the Morning shoulder lane that is only open from 6-8 in the mornings will be opened 24 hours a day.
I may have drifted at the meeting if they mentioned that widening that is happening soon as I was frustrated at different points of the meeting.
*edit*
Quick Fixes:
7) Traffic Congestion at Kea'au Bypass Road Junction. Traffic Bottlenecks where the two Pahoa-bound lanes merge at the end of the Kea'au Bypass Road. Options Include:
1. Banning right turns on red
2. Reconfiguring the right turn movement from the Old Kea'au-Pahoa Road onto Route 130, such that the traffic must make a 90-degree turn a the stoplight (effectively closing off the right-turn yield situation)
3. Overhauling the intersection design such that only traffic entering the Old Keaau-Pahoa Road is Permitted. No traffic entering Route 130 would be permitted.
Comment: We have the County Traffic Division's support for the proposals. However, coordination with the police, schools and public is needed before proceeding.
