Drivers planning to navigate Maluhia Road any weekday from now through July 25 might need to tack on some extra commute time. The stretch from Kaumuali‘i Highway to Ala Kino‘iki Junction is subject to lane closures from 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. to allow for necessary road repairs and vegetation maintenance, according to a recent statement from the County of Kaua'i.
The project is taking longer than expected due to delays and the need to expand the work area. This means drivers should plan for possible traffic and minor delays. The County of Kaua'i advises motorists to avoid parking in the work zone and be prepared for some inconvenience, even with flaggers on-site to help guide traffic.
For those seeking additional information or looking to stay informed on the progress of the work, electronic message boards will be posted in the vicinity of the affected road sections. Inquiries about the project and its impact on local traffic can be made directly by contacting the Roads Division Main Office at 808-241-4847 or via email at [email protected], as per the County of Kaua'i.
