Connection of Ala Kalanikaumaka, Lopaka Paipa Boulevard to proceed
KOLOA — A blessing was held last week to mark the start of construction that would
expand Lopaka Paipa Boulevard, and connect the private roadway to Ala Kalanikaumaka in
Koloa.
The blessing was attended by County of Kauai officials, representatives from The Club
at Kukui`ula, Kukui`ula Development Company, and contractor Cushnie Construction Company.
Lopaka Paipa Boulevard is the primary street that serves the Koloa Estates Subdivision
and provides a connection into Po`ipu Road. Koloa Estates Subdivision was approved by the
Planning Commission on April 22, 1999. A condition of the subdivision required a connection of
a major street between Po`ipu Road (Lopaka Paipa Boulevard) and a future western bypass
road (today known as Ala Kalanikaumaka).
Lopaka Paipa Boulevard serves as a key component in the traffic masterplan
encompassing the Koloa-Po`ipu region. The extension and completion of the roadway is
necessary since construction of housing units within the subdivision as well as the surrounding
areas have been completed.
