HON state - FY 2026-2027 ompo overall work program

The State of Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) received a Formula Grant award of $574,781.25 from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) under the Metropolitan Transportation Planning and State and Non-Metropolitan Planning and Research program (CFDA 20.505). Awarded on June 17, 2025, with completion by October 31, 2027, this funding supports the implementation of the FY 2026-2027 Oahu Metropolitan Planning Organization (OMPO) Overall Work Program.

Under this award, HDOT will deliver comprehensive metropolitan transportation planning services for the Oahu urbanized area, including development and refinement of the Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP), coordination of the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), and execution of technical studies supporting balanced, multimodal transportation planning. The funding enables HDOT to conduct planning activities that incorporate public input, address transportation system design and project selection needs, and ensure compliance with federal transportation planning requirements for the Oahu region. These planning efforts support long-range transportation improvements that enhance mobility, safety, and connectivity across Hawaii's primary urbanized area.
