What are Complete Streets?

Complete Streets are those that work for everyone, safely moving people while balancing the needs of pedestrians, bicyclists, transit riders, and motorists. Complete Streets are safe, convenient, and accessible for all, regardless of how one gets around or their age or ability. Planning for Complete Streets considers the unique characteristics of each location by engaging the community and using data to deliver the most appropriate safety improvements for our City streets.

Our Work

The City’s Complete Streets law (ROH 14-18) expresses Honolulu’s commitment to planning, designing, operating, and maintaining Complete Streets. Some Complete Streets improvements are programmed with planned roadway repaving and maintenance efforts, while others are stand-alone projects aimed to deliver improvements to specific streets and neighborhoods.
