The West Maui Greenway is a proposed 25-mile multiuse trail that will connect Ukumehame to Līpoa Point. It will provide a safe, multimodal transportation option to using the Honoapi’ilani Highway and act as an alternative evacuation route accessible to vehicles in an emergency, as well as a fire and fuel break for fire protection. Welcoming people of all ages and abilities who walk, bike, or use assisted mobility devices, the  West Maui Greenway was identified as a priority project in numerous previous planning efforts. The Maui Metropolitan Planning Organization received federal funding and produced the West Maui Greenway Plan (September 2022) which developed a preferred route alignment, breaking the corridor into seven segments and trail types. This project focuses on Phase 1 which includes Segments 3, 4, and 5 from Lahaina Civic Center to Launiupoko Beach Park (5.25 miles).

Route alignment and design for Phase 1 need to be coordinated with the Lahaina Rebuild Framework project as the West Maui Greenway is a key urban design feature for the town.  Right-of-way acquisition, funding  and long-term management and maintenance of the greenway are key challenges.
