Commuters along Kawaihau Road should plan for a bit of a slowdown later this week. The Department of Public Works and GP Roadway Solutions have made an announcement that lane closures will be taking place from Tuesday, May 27, to Wednesday, May 28, for guardrail repairs. These necessary disruptions will occur between 8 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., provided the weather is cooperative, according to the county's press release.
The specific stretches affected are between Kūhiō Highway and Kawaihau Place. Drivers should be prepared to adjust their routes, possibly add a little more time to their commutes, and look for parking elsewhere, as it will be restricted in the work zones. For those navigating the repairs, flaggers will be on-site directing the flow of traffic.
Residents and visitors of the area are advised to make appropriate arrangements to accommodate these changes. Alternate routes are recommended to avoid delays, especially during peak hours. For more information about the closures or if there are any pressing questions, GP Roadway Solutions can be reached at 808-275-5263, and the Roads Division Main Office is available at 808-241-4847.
