Honolulu's Skyline Rail Begins Service
- Honolulu's Skyline opened for passenger service on 30 June 2023, an 11-mile first phase with nine stations between Kualaka'i (East Kapolei) and Halawa (Aloha Stadium)[2][3]
- The mostly elevated, driverless system took 12 years of construction and suffered delays, cost overruns, leadership turnover and the threat of losing federal funding[2]
- Fares were waived on all transit through 4 July; HART handed control to the City and County of Honolulu in early June 2023, and Hitachi Rail built the railcars and operates core systems[2]
- Next phases are the Airport Extension (planned 2025, four stations) and the City Center Extension (2031, six stations)[2]
- Mayor Rick Blangiardi called it the largest public works project in Hawaii's history[3]
