Lane Closures Scheduled For Mailihuna Road

Construction work will cause a traffic pattern change next week on Mailihuna Road.

The county Department of Public Works and Grace Pacific LLC. announced in a news release that a portion of Mailihuna Road will be closed from 7 a.m.-3:30 p.m. Feb. 22-25.

The periodic one-lane closures are necessary for sidewalk construction, driveway construction and roadway excavation. A temporary traffic detour will be available through Kolohala Road.

Motorists are advised to expect brief and occasional delays.

The county asks that drivers exercise caution and drive slowly when commuting through the work area and along the detour route, which is narrow and near the homes of residents.

Questions or concerns can be directed to Marie Poynter of Grace Pacific at 808-699-4654.
