Water service shutdown for customers on Makana Road and Po'o Road in
Kapaa
KAPA'A—The Department of Water (DOW) announces an emergency water service shutdown for customers
located on Makana Road and Po'o Road in Kapa'a for approximately 6 to 8 hours due to a recent mainline
break in the area. Additionally, a partial one -lane road closure will be in place near the intersection of
Opaeka'a Road and Makana Road in Kapa'a as crews set up safety zones to work on the main line break
alongside Opaeka'a Road. Motorists are asked to proceed with caution and adhere to all safety and traffic
control in place.
Upon initial investigation of the system, DOW crews were able to isolate the main line break to minimize
the service disruption in the area, however some customers outside of the affected area may also experience
low water pressure during the emergency repairs.
An update will be provided as soon as new information becomes available. To monitor updates online, visit
