Pua Nani Street repairs
What is the status of repairs and final paving of Pua Nani Street in Lihue? The road has been under repair for what seems like years.
This section of the roadway is safe for traffic. Pavement patching can occur at that location once material becomes available to the Roads Division.
Missing street name signs
Many of the street name signs atop the stop signs are missing throughout the Kapaa-Waipouli stretch of Kuhio Highway. These include, but are not limited to, Hoi Road, Aleka Loop, Papaloa Road, etc. Can the county look into replacing these, or is there a specific reason these have been removed?
This is under the jurisdiction of Hawaii Department of Transportation. County officials have forwarded this inquiry to HDOT.
