Which design theme do you feel would enhance the community's cultural identity more?
The Maui MPO is excited to create a community-driven art design within the newly available space outside of the vehicle travelway at the intersection of Kenolio Road and Alulike Street in the community of Kihei in South Maui.
An online survey and an in-person community meeting were held in February 2025 to gather feedback for the South Maui Quick Build: Street Art Project. A total of 87 community members shared their ideas for the street art design. The results from this first round of community input revealed that 68% of respondents believe it is very important to represent the local culture and heritage of the area. They emphasized natural features such as the ocean, wetlands, sand dunes, native plants, and wildlife as key elements that best reflect the unique character of the region.

The Hana Community Pathway Study envisions a 5.5-mile multimodal greenway linking important resources and services like Hāna Elementary and High School, Hāna Health, and the farmers' market, allowing both residents and visitors to safely walk, bike, or roll through their community. Currently, Hāna Highway is the only road connecting the daily services and destinations of its residents and visitors. This two-lane road is winding, narrow, and the speeds of cars on the highway frequently surpass the 25-mph limit.
The pathway aims to increase connectivity, accessibility, and safety by designating dedicated walkways and trails for pedestrians separate from the highway.
