The beach road is still a public legal right of way as it crosses through both the shores and Hpp subdivisions. At no time was that right of way relinquished to either of the subdivisions. It is only a 10' wide right of way in most areas but with the common rules of eminent domain suspended that 10' wide status can become wider very quickly.
All of this is just speculation on our behalf on what the County mights choose to do but in fact they could also choose to run the already existing right of way all the way through to the eastern side of Hilo for the Beach road and the already existing Railroad avenue right of way all the way to its present existence in Hilo from its spotted and abandoned existence from 132. None of those right of ways have been relinquished. Abandonment and relinquishment are two different things.
