This week, Oʻahu public transportation news includes a potential TheBus worker strike, and the Honolulu City Council was to consider a proposed fare hike for TheBus and other public transportation.

In order to understand what the new Skyline rail extension looks like, The Conversation sat down with Honolulu Department of Transportation Services Deputy Director Jon Nouchi to talk about new service to a major employment center — the military and its civilian workforce at Pearl Harbor Hickam.
