Caldwell begins series of town hall meetings
Honolulu mayor Kirk Caldwell speaks during a news conference that unveiled a newly redone crosswalk on Monday, April 8, 2013 at the intersection of Kalakaua Avenue and Royal Hawaiian Avenue in Waikiki. Crews re-painted and adjusted signals on Sunday night to convert the intersection into an “All Pedestrian Phase” intersection, commonly referred to as the “Barnes Dance” after Henry A. Barnes to whom the concept has been attributed.
