As road resurfacing commences, residents and travelers in Kekaha are gearing up to navigate scheduled lane closures along several roads from November 25 to November 27. The Department of Public Works and Maui Kupono Builders have announced that portions of Auku‘u Road, Akepa Road, and Mamo Road will see disruptions daily between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., weather permitting. These closures, as reported by official statements, are necessary to facilitate smooth and improved travel in the future.
Local inhabitants have been assured that access to their properties will be maintained during these times, although they should expect to quickly navigate through adjusted traffic patterns. Flaggers will be strategically stationed throughout the work zones to help direct the flow of vehicles. Parking restrictions will be strictly enforced in the areas undergoing work to ensure the safety and efficiency of the operation.
Motorists traveling through Kekaha are strongly encouraged to plan their routes in advance and allow extra time to reach their destinations. The construction teams are making every reasonable effort to minimize the disruptions caused by the closures, but some delays are inevitable.
For more details on how to precisely plan around the construction schedule, residents can reach out directly to Maui Kupono Builders at 808-369-1800 or Todd Ozaki at the County of Kaua‘i at 808-241-4845. It's recommended that the public stay informed on operational changes that may occur due to unforeseen weather conditions or other factors that could either extend or reduce the expected timeframe of roadwork.
