Frogs, wheels, tracks, hammerheads, and who knows what other construction errors await the rail system.

As one of the thousands of taxpayers on the hook for Honolulu Authority for Rapid Transportation costs, I find unbelievable HART executive director Lori Kahikina’s apparent lack of concern or interest in the cost for repairs to get the rail running (“Rail will open in July, HART CEO confirms,” Star-Advertiser, April 18).

Repair work is ordered and being done, and according to her nothing has been discussed concerning accountability or payment, nothing has been charged to HART. She prefers not to “talk commercial” and said that “Kiewit is phenomenal.” Didn’t the errors occur under its watch? It will be interesting when that bill comes in, and the finger-pointing begins.

I’m sure the HART board and voters would like some clear idea of the fallout from this mess sooner rather than later.
