Honolulu mayor proposes bike lanes beneath planned elevated rail transit tracks

Mayor Kirk Caldwell says the city is considering placing a bicycle path underneath the elevated tracks of Honolulu's planned $5.16 billion rail transit system.

KITV reports Caldwell, who led state and federal officials on a five-mile bike ride through the city on Wednesday, said he calls the proposed bike path the "Green Line," and said it would connect to other bike lanes in the city.

KITV reports city Transportation Services Director Mike Formby says Caldwell's budget includes $100,000 to study the feasibility of a "Green Line."
