The Hawai‘i Department of Transportation (HDOT) has appointed Curt Otaguro as its next deputy director of transportation for airports. Previously serving as state comptroller and deputy superintendent of operations for the Department of Education, Otaguro will begin his role as deputy director June 4, managing the operation and maintenance of the state’s 15 airport facilities.
“Curt is the right person to continue the great improvements that we’ve been making at our airports,” said Hawai‘i Department of Transportation Director Ed Sniffen. “His strong project management and fiscal background, coupled with his ability to partner with industry ensure we continue to push the entry points that welcome friends, family, and guests to our islands to higher levels.”
