Yeah, this detour isn't going to be an issue for those north of Pahoa, unless there are frequent trips to Kalapana for some reason. This is still going to be interesting to see how this detour through Pahoa main street is going to work. That and with the recent news that looks like Brison's is going through means the Kahakai intersection is going to be completed. Hope the news is wrong that people coming up out of Beaches will have to take a left at the intersection and take post office road back out on to Pahoa main street. Probably won't be amusing to get caught in that muck.
Beaches should just be made into a tourist highway and alternate route, excluding tsunami evacuation. But it easy to see how a road from Kapoho to Hilo would meet insurmountable howls all along the way.
