Hawaii SB217 proposes designating a portion of Hana Highway as a toll road and developing a plan to exempt residents from toll charges.

Hawaii SB217 amends the state's transportation statutes to designate a portion of Hana Highway as a toll road, from mile marker thirty-two to mile marker forty. The bill also mandates the Department of Transportation to create a plan exempting state residents from toll charges, ensuring the exemption does not hinder the road's maintenance and use. The department must submit a report with findings and recommendations, including any proposed legislation, to the legislature before the 2026 session.
