I think the plan you are talking about is either of the following.
https://www.genkialawai.org/
This one is a plan to clean the Ala Wai Canal by introducing balloons (Genki Balls ）) mixed with bacteria that promote the breakdown of sludge.
The goal is to make the canal accessible for fishing and swimming by 2026. I think I saw some news that the water quality on the east side of the canal is improving, but I am not sure.

This is a more aggressive plan, which is to excavate around the current Monsarrat Street to connect the canal to the ocean and use sluice and tidal channels to clean up Ala Wai.
It is a bold plan, but what are the chances of it being realized ・ ・ ・

#3 Aloha
The Ala Wai Canal occupies a large area in the middle of Honolulu.
For example, if the Ala Wai Canal is cleaned up and made available for swimming and playing, it would create a new activity as the back side of Waikiki. However, I wonder if it will take a long time to realize it when I ride my bicycle by the Ala Wai Canal.

Also, when I saw the bluehawaiicanal commercial, I thought it looked interesting, but when I looked at the website, it depicted large buildings on both banks of the canal built along Monsarrat, which made me think ？ that there is a development in the end and I had some delicate feelings. ・ ・ ・
Also, I wonder about the feasibility of connecting the Ala Wai Canal and Waikiki Beach, and what will happen to the water quality near Ala Moana ？ where the Ala Wai water will flow out.

Ala Wai Canal, I think the water quality is getting better than it was 12 years ago, but

I still think it is impossible to improve the water quality. I know that there is a project to clean up the canal,
but when I asked the person in charge, he said that the goal is to improve the water quality first.

It may take decades to complete the project, but there is a possibility that
in the near future, people will be able to swim in the Ala Wai Canal.

Waikiki is dry now because of the Ala Wai Canal. If not for the Ala Wai Canal
, Waikiki would still be a marsh.
