The closure was delayed because of a shortage of materials and inclement weather. It is now scheduled for 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. Monday and Tuesday, April 6-7.

It is necessary for crews to reconstruct the existing pavement on the Hanalei approach to the Hanalei Bridge.

The highway will reopen if work is completed sooner than anticipated.

There also could be future closures for asphalt treatment that needs to be done on the Princeville side of Hanalei Bridge.

First responders were notified and will be able to go through the work area in case of an emergency. Variable message boards will be posted to inform the public.
