To improve vehicular access to Turtle Bay resort, two new intersections at Kamehameha Highway are proposed to supplement the existing entrance at Kuilima Drive. A new internal road will link the new Marconi Road intersection at the far eastern end of the resort in an east-west direction to a new resort entrance east of Kawela Bay. Kuilima Drive intersection will also be upgraded to improve traffic flows.
An extensive network of pedestrian walkways and rustic bridle paths will enable resort guests, visitors, and local residents to walk, bike, and ride horses throughout much of the resort’s open space and shoreline area. Nine separate public shoreline access ways, each with public parking stalls, will improve access to the resort’s four-plus mile coastline. Alternative transportation methods will be encouraged and facilitated with signage and a commitment to bike rentals. We look forward to the day when regional trails extend from Hale‘iwa to Lā‘ie and beyond.

With the increased critical mass provided in the resort master plan, we anticipate a greater opportunity to develop shuttle services and other alternatives to personal vehicles on the road.
