Residents and motorists in the Kawaihau area should be aware of a two-day closure of Kaehulua Road, scheduled by the Department of Public Works and its contractor, The Cutting-Edge Land Clearing Solutions. The closure, for tree trimming and removal operations, will take place from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week, weather permitting.
The closure will affect the section of Kaehulua Road near Kawaihau Road. Detour routes are available, with Kaapuni Road recommended as an alternative. Access for residents within the affected area will be maintained, allowing them to reach their homes. Motorists are advised to allow additional travel time to navigate the detours and follow the adjusted traffic patterns, according to the county's annoucement.
In line with the work schedule, parking will be prohibited within the designated work zones for the duration of the project. Flaggers will be stationed throughout the area to direct traffic and assist with vehicle flow. The Department of Public Works notes that this operation is necessary for public safety and to facilitate smoother roadway conditions once the clearance work is completed.
