HONOLULU (AP) — Honolulu has awarded a $5.5 million design contract for three stations along the city's planned commuter rail line.
Acting Mayor Kirk Caldwell announced Wednesday that the contract went to HDR/Hawaii Pacific Engineers. Omaha, Neb.-based HDR acquired HPE in 2007.
Caldwell says the city looks forward to working with the company to ensure the rail stations are easy to use, with attractive designs that embody the spirit of their communities.
The stations to be located along Farrington Highway will serve West Loch, Waipahu Transit Center and Leeward Community College.
Lester Fukuka of the firm's Honolulu office will serve as principal consultant.
