The parts east of the airport haven't even started construction yet from my understanding, which is really the critical part connecting into downtown and the high density areas around the Ala Moana Center.

It's an odd prioritization in my opinion. It'll probably be quite empty on opening day as it won't really go anywhere useful until the rest of the project can be built. Ideally they should have been building it to Waikiki in the first phase IMO - but that just adds more costs.

The high ridership component will probably be between the Airport and Ala Moana.. which is exactly the part they are building last.
