Thank you for the many responses.
This area of the coastline has become very Hazardous and will become popular or visited once again. along both sides of the remaining portion of asphalt road in that section are now three foot drop offs on to uneven lava rocks because of the high tide and big wave washouts. If someone is walking day or "night" in that area and steps off the road by accident it has the potential of being a serious accident.
My Kids do like to play on that now covered playground in Pohoiki. They also enjoy walking the less than hundred yards to go fishing and catching bait on the left side "woods side" of that broken up asphalt road. My four year old caught the biggest fish of his young life in there recently and we always see turtles there. Four wheel drive vehicles come in at times, while bottles and trash are being thrown about the area. The hundreds of broken up and left pieces of asphalt helps make the area look like a future illegal dumping zone. Jmo
P.S. The Original Red Cinder road in that area was actually quite nice and lasted for several decades. Why not restore it and help make it a popular portion of pohoiki for the Keiki? Relieving the boat ramp area from the congestion and very young swimmers may not be a bad idea before someone gets seriously hurt by the many fishing or tourism boats. jmo
