Guideway Installation

The Honolulu Area Rail Transit is an above-ground mass transit rail system that has been under construction for the past several years that will extend from East Kapolei to the Ala Moana district. The photo above shows the guideway being laid in at the Aloha Stadium Station.

The first operational segment of The Rail will run from East Kapolei to Aloha Stadium, and should begin service later this year.

The Rail is now several years behind schedule, and a few billions of dollars over budget. The first operational segment, from East Kapolei to Aloha Stadium, is scheduled to begin in the fall of this year. They estimate that the full system will not be in operation until 2033.
