> I just don't understand why Hawaii government has been so slow

Island time is a real thing. And politics in Hawaii takes nepotism and "good old boys" networks to the next level. Things are the way they are because the people in charge are happy with it.

HART (the light rail system they're building) is a complete disaster, for the same reasons.

I can't see the government there being able to handle much of any major infrastructure project. The airport expansion is moving at a glacial pace as well. And it's a miracle the H3 ever got built.
