It was in the paper with the reasons. The contractor worked into the evening rush hour and they are going to be fined.

The Keaau Crawl: Roadwork creates gridlock and headaches

This also works in Honolulu: Go in the opposite direction of rush hour traffic. Used to head out on H1 in the morning, wide open out of Honolulu, lanes going into Honolulu are a parking lot. In the evening, head back to Waikiki, wide open, lanes heading out of Honolulu are jammed.

Around here, the rush hour in the morning is headed into Hilo, from about 7am to 10am. After 10, the road into town is usually wide open (barring accidents). From 12 to 1, the construction is on lunch but there is more general lunch hour traffic. From about 1pm to 3pm, both sides are usually open but the slow down is building at the Kea'au merge into Puna. From 4pm to 7pm, forget about getting back to Puna. I usually mess around town or go shopping. After 7pm, the Kea'au backup is usually totally gone. Works if you can set your own hours plus not be in a rush to get anywhere.
