According to the Hawaiʻi Department of Transportation (HDOT), crews continue to work on installing loop detectors, striping, new traffic signal lights equipped with LED bulb sand  traffic signal backplates during the Pūʻainakō Street Resurfacing project.

The work is being performed with a daily single-lane closure on Pūʻainakō Street possible in either direction between Kanoelehua Avenue and Komohana Street on weekdays, from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Crews will try to work with surrounding schools to ensure little conflict with the end-of-school rush.

The project is estimated to be completed by March 2025, however crews will need to return at a later date to install the traffic signal bulbs and traffic signal backplates pending material availability.

Electronic message boards will be posted to notify motorists of closure information. HDOT reminds motorists to drive with caution and to follow all traffic control signs through the work zone area.

All work is weather permitting.
