Public safety is the top priority during this phase of emergency work. Until the slope is fully stabilized above and below Kūhiō Highway at mile marker 1, single lane access without a pilot vehicle escort is not possible. The public access schedule is in place to ensure safe, efficient single-lane alternating movement through the area.

Updates on the slope stabilization and the public access schedule will continue to be posted at https://hidot.hawaii.gov/2021-hanalei-hill-landslide/.
