Always wondered why Old Government Beach Road wasn't paved all the way from Kapoho to Hilo, as a tourist highway, disconnect it from being an all-purpose evacuation highway and designated definitely not for use during a tsunami. Looking at the terrain, it is more difficult than from Kapoho to Kalapana Hwy 137. Then a lot of people don't want to see Waa-waa paved all the way to Beaches plus there are long stretches of Red Road on the verge of breaking off into the ocean. It isn't like bulldozers show up next week either. Maybe not next week?
