Lane closure scheduled for portion of Ala Kalanikaumaka on Dec. 12
PO`IPU — The Department of Public Works is announcing that one lane of Ala
Kalanikaumaka in the vicinity of Lopaka Paipa Boulevard will be periodically closed on Dec. 12
to allow Cushnie Construction Company, Inc. for paving work from 8 to 11 a.m., weather
permitting.
The scope of the work of the ongoing project is to connect Lopaka Paipa Boulevard with
Ala Kalanikaumakua. One lane of alternating traffic will be maintained. Flaggers will be
positioned to assist motorists during these closures.
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.
Please make the appropriate arrangements to accommodate the necessary road
closures and allow for extra time to get to destinations.
Anyone with questions may contact John Soares at 808-346-2370.
