Honoapiilani Highway |
JN High Street at Kahookele Street in Wailuku, south then west (via 318 feet-long Olowalu Tunnel northwest of Papawai Point) then north through Lahaina, then northeast to JN Kahekili Highway at Honohokau Bay; highway through Lahaina has four lanes; first 1.9 miles, in Wailuku north of Waiale Drive, county-maintained in 1960s; at northwestern end of route, 10.4 miles used to be county route 300 until 1968; in addition to Lower Honoapiilani Road (see listing below), there are old Honoapiilani Highway alignments visible inland from the existing alignment, both east of the Olowalu Tunnel (best viewed from the scenic turnout east of the tunnel), and west of the tunnel (several miles now privately-owned, but open to non-motor vehicle traffic); named for several west Maui bays ("hono-") within domain of 16th century chieftain Piilani |
35.6 miles |
In addition to the plans underway to construct an eastern bypass of Lahaina (see following listing), there were longer-range plans (apparently on indefinite hold) to also widen to four lanes and realign the highway southeast of Lahaina to Maalaea (or at least to the two-lane Olowalu Tunnel). Much of the highway would be moved inland to keep shore erosion from undercutting the roadbed, avoid occasional closures from high waves, and free up the existing right-of-way for a proposed new shoreline park. |

Lahaina Bypass |
JN Hokiokio Place south of Lahaina, north to JN Keawe Street in Lahaina; upon completion, to extend from JN Honoapiilani Highway south of Lahaina at mile 17.65, north to JN Honoapiilani Highway north of Lahaina at mile 26.82; initially built as two-lane road with divided segments and climbing lanes in places, but ultimately to be four-lane divided highway, with mostly at-grade crossings; ground was broken in April 2009 on phase 1A of project, between Lahainaluna Road and Keawe Street, which opened March 2013; next phase, south of Lahainaluna Road to Hokiokio Place, completed December 2013; route appears to have no route number signage, except spurious signage at Lahainaluna Road interchange (perhaps reflecting ultimate plan to move onto Lahaina Bypass once completed); three additional phases, to complete bypass, planned but with no projected completion dates |

Another option, which was earlier explored by Hawaii DOT, and which still has local supporters, would extend south of Wailea past Makena, then northeast and uphill to join at its junction with .

The information I have on former routing(s) is conflicting. The preceding South Kihei Road segment is the one I am most confident was a former alignment of route 31. Hawaii DOT planning documents from the 1960s indicate that route 31 was a designated state route, open along the coast down to Kalama Park, but south of there route 31 was shown only as a proposed route southeast from the coast connecting to at Ulupalakua in upcountry east Maui. Other information suggests that pending that proposed inland (re-)routing, route 31 extended further south along the coast, perhaps down to and including the now-closed Makena Road (FORMER) connection to , or even (less likely) LaPerouse Bay.
Another complication is that parts of the original coastal road south from Kihei to Wailea and Makena were closed and/or bypassed by Okolani Drive, Wailea Alanui Drive, and Makena Alanui Road, to make way for new resorts along the shoreline. It is particularly unclear whether those roads were ever part of route 31, but a set of Maui County planning maps suggest that route 31 followed at least part of Wailea Alanui Drive, down to and perhaps including Makena Road (FORMER), via Kaukahi Street, the segment below of still-open (Old) Makena Road, and a part of (Old) Makena Road later absorbed by Makena Alanui Road. The former (Old) Makena Road segment was later bypassed by Makena Alanui Road, but it is unclear when that happened, or whether the route 31 designation ever shifted to the new Makena Alanui alignment before the designation was removed altogether for the roads along the coast between Kihei and Makena.
Here's a rundown on the possible former 31 routings south of Kalama Park shown on various Maui or Hawaii statewide maps I have reviewed, which include various permutations of the segments shown below (the preceding South Kihei Road segment north of Kalama Park is common to all pre-1981 routings):
1959 Bryan's Sectional Maps, 1973 Atlas of Hawaii, 1975 Skipper Maps, 1976 Compass Maps: includes South Kihei Road (both segments), South Kihei Road/(Old) Makena Road, part of Makena Alanui Road, Makena Road (FORMER) segments.
1976 Maui County planning map: includes South Kihei Road (both segments), South Kihei Road/(Old) Makena Road, Makena Alanui Road, and Makena Road segments all the way to LaPerouse Bay; does not include Makena Road (FORMER) to Ulupalakua.
1981 Maui County numbered county routes maps: include at least Wailea Alanui Drive, Kaukahi Street, part of South Kihei Road/(Old) Makena Road, part of Makena Alanui Road, and Makena Road (FORMER) segments, and probably also part of Piilani Highway, plus Kilohana Drive, South Kihei Road (second segment below), and Okolani Drive segments. (These maps show all of the numbered county routes, but do not include the foregoing segments among them, suggesting that those segments were part of a numbered state route.)
1969 and 1975 Rand McNally Hawaii foldup maps: include only first South Kihei Road segment below, show route 31 as ending in Keawakapu
1985 AAA Hawaii foldup map: includes part of Piilani Highway, plus Kilohana Drive, South Kihei Road (second segment below), Okolani Drive, Wailea Alanui Drive, and Makena Alanui Road segments below, ending in Makena instead of continuing either to La Perouse Bay or Ulupalakua.
While the listings below discuss various possible segments of former "state" route 31, it is possible that the route 31 designation for some or all of them was made by Maui County rather than Hawaii DOT, and that they always were (as is now the case) county rather than state roads. This is particularly likely for segments built, or incorporated into route 31, after the late 1960s when Hawaii's combined state and county route number system was divided into discrete state and county networks. None of the Hawaii DOT annual reports or other historical records I have reviewed indicate that the state constructed or maintained any of the following segments, particularly the ones most recently built (such as Wailea Alanui Drive and Makena Alanui Road).
Just after statehood in 1961, a Hawaii DOT plan showed a "proposed new route" 310 (perhaps on new alignment) following the coast from Kihei to Keawakapu, then turning inland on a new alignment toward the southeast to connect to what is now Piilani Highway at Ulupalakua. Part of this proposal evolved into the new Piilani Highway decades later. The plan also showed a "possible future highway" route 321, running along the coast (on unspecified alignment) 10.6 miles from Keawakapu to La Perouse Bay. The latter proposal disappeared from later Hawaii DOT plans, though it may have resurfaced as one of the above possible routings.

Commercial traffic is not allowed. This is intended to relieve chronic afternoon rush congestion through Paia.
