Honolulu Advertiser Letter to the Editor on 12/17 by Kirk Caldwell, Managing Director, City and County of Honolulu
Rail Transit - Poll results show public support rose
We find it interesting that The Advertiser's story about a scientific poll on rail authorized by the city ("Poll, TV deals avoid scrutiny," Dec. 11) negle...cted to include the most obvious thing: the poll results.
When Advertiser reporter Sean Hao requested information on the city's recent poll, he was also provided the results of the scientific survey that found:
• 60 percent of those polled supported the development of a 20-mile elevated rail transit line connecting West Oahu with Downtown Honolulu and Ala Moana Center.
• 69 percent also felt that rail transit was a "good investment" in the future of Honolulu.
• 77 percent of Oahu feels the island has a "serious" traffic problem. And even among those opposing the rail project, 71 percent agrees that Oahu has serious traffic problems.
The scientific survey conducted by respected polling firm QMark Research & Polling interviewed 900 Oahu residents. One hundred people in each of the nine City Council districts were interviewed to ensure that all regions of the island were surveyed.
Not only did the poll show that public support for rail went up since the transit vote, but it provides the city insight on how to improve its community outreach on what the public wants to learn about the project, including costs and how the train service would operate.

Managing Director, City and County of Honolulu
