Nightly full closure of Kūhiō Highway now set to begin Feb. 23

Kūhiō Highway (Route 560) on Hanalei Hill will fully close from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. beginning Monday, Feb. 23, through Friday, Feb. 27.

The closure is necessary for crews to reconstruct the existing pavement on the Hanalei approach to the Hanalei Bridge, between Hanalei Plantation Road and ʻŌhiki Road.

If the work is completed sooner than anticipated, the highway will reopen. There will be no closures on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights. There may be future closures for asphalt treatment on the Princeville side of the Hanalei Bridge.

First responders have been notified and will be able to pass through the work area in case of an emergency. Variable message boards will be posted to inform the public. Work is weather permitting.
