Lane closures on Kuhio Highway in Uhu`e and Kapaia set for July 15
through 19 and July 22 through 26
LIHU`E and KAPAIA — The public is advised that there will be two separate lane closures
that will occur from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. on the nights of July 15 through July 19 and July 22 through
26. The closures are necessary to allow the Wastewater Management Division to perform
maintenance on their collection system.
The lane closures are as follows:
• The outermost southbound lane of Kuhio Highway at the intersection with Ehiku Street;
and
• The southbound lane of Kuhio Highway between Nuku Street and Kapaia Road.
For the Ehiku Street work, two-way traffic will be maintained. Southbound traffic will use
the innermost lane near the intersection. Traffic will not be allowed to either turn onto Ehiku
Street from Kuhio Highway or turn onto Kuhio Highway from Ehiku Street. Traffic will be
detoured via Eha Street.
For the work between Nuku Street and Kapaia Road, two-way traffic will be maintained.
Southbound traffic on Kuhio Highway will be shifted one lane over to the left.
Motorists should drive with caution, expect delays, and adjust their travel times as
needed.

Works at 241-4083 or via email at Ikagimoto(a�kauai.gov.
