The Hawaiʻi Department of Transportation (HDOT) is holding a public meeting on its proposed land acquisition for traffic improvements on Kalanianaʻole Street adjacent to Hilo Harbor tonight from 5p-7p at the Keaukaha Elementary School located at 240 Desha Avenue in Hilo

The proposed improvements include construction of a dedicated turn lane from Kalanianaʻole Street into Hilo Harbor and construction of stacking lanes for semi-trailers within Hilo Harbor.
