May 4, Update: Weliweli Road roadwork updates announced
KŌLOA – Due to ongoing construction of various projects on Weliweli Road, in Kōloa, the
Department of Public Works (DPW) announces the following updates.
One lane of Weliweli Road, fronting Kaua‘i ATV, will be closed from Monday, May 8, to
Wednesday, May 10, to allow Koga Engineering and Construction Inc. to install a new sewer line. Traffic
will be contra-flowed through the area during work hours from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. All work is weather
permitting.
Due to this sewer line installation, DPW has postponed road resurfacing work that was
previously scheduled for May 8 to 11, on Weliweli Road (between Kōloa Road and Waikomo Road). A
new schedule of this work will be announced at a later date.
Brief and occasional delays are expected during work hours. Motorists are advised to make
appropriate arrangements to accommodate the necessary lane closure, use alternate routes, and allow
extra time to get to your destination. Please exercise caution and drive slowly when commuting through
the work area.
Anyone with questions on the scheduled sewer line work may contact Garett Ichimura with
Koga Engineering and Construction Inc. at 808-864-3148.
