Kapahi bridge set to reopen tomorrow afternoon
KAPAHI – The Department of Public Works today announced that the Kapahi bridge will
be reopened to the public on May 25 in the late afternoon as the project is substantially
complete.
Flagmen will continue to regulate traffic flow over the bridge until mid-summer when the
project is expected to be fully complete.
The remaining work includes the installation of guardrails, striping and grassing of the
shoulders.
The Federal Highway Administration is providing 80 percent of the funding for the
project. The remaining 20 percent is funded through the county’s highway and bond funds.
