A Beautiful Place To Live! But The Traffic!
February 26th, 2009 categories: For Buyers, Military, Neighborhoods
The local blog “Aloha Update” has an excellent post on the traffic one faces when commuting from the windward side.
“Monday through Friday, before sunrise, beginning at 6:00 am is when bumper to bumper traffic starts in Kahalu’u around Ahuimanu Road and Ahuimanu Place going towards Kaneohe. In the morning, it can take me about 15 minutes from Ahuimanu Road. to Haiku Road, which is only approximately 3 miles. Without traffic this route should only take about 3 minutes. This morning traffic lasts until about 9:00 am. For the after work flow going the opposite direction from Haiku Road to Kahalu’u, this traffic-jam begins at about 3:00 pm and can last up until 7:00 pm!”

If you have followed my blog for an extended period of time, you know that I have ranted over and over about the impact of traffic on real estate. Aloha Update’s post confirms the impact of traffic on quality of life and therefore real estate values.

I had an office mate that was in that both ways 5 days a week. Not for me! I would try to find a job in the area if I could! I would rather be there then Mililani and onward!
Great post and will pass this on to my clients.
