Residents across Kaua'i County have been facing intermittent phone outages that have disrupted communications. The County of Kaua'i Information Technology Division is on the watch, addressing the technical difficulties which have led to various government phone lines and voicemails going down. The county urges the public to use their website for contacting government services, recommending that individuals email them for assistance.

The Kaua'i Police Department's non-emergency line at (808) 241-1711 is down due to a technical issue. People are now asked to use these backup numbers for non-emergencies: (808) 755-8516 and (808) 652-7837, according to the County of Kaua'i.

The cause of the outages is still unknown, and details are limited. For more detailed information and updates on the phone outages, the public is encouraged to visit the county's official press release at County of Kaua'i Government News.
