Donald Smith, County DOT Engineer, gave an update presentation at the 21 March board meeting of the work on Hwy 130 "Improvements". He said given the allotted space at hand makes it difficult. That any decision he makes will affect the community one way or another.
From 6-8 AM there will be 2 lanes north bound. They'll add an extra lane where 29th is barricaded. Southbound no Left turn onto 29th at any time. Northbound an extra lane will be added starting at Kaloli Dr to Shower Dr and then will merge back in further down. Won't be able to turn Left onto Shower south bound, and won't be able to turn Left north bound onto Pohaku. He said between Shower and Kaloli there are 2 transmission lines and he would need more space to get shoulders on the hwy which means they would have to do eminent domain, and there's no funds right now, maybe in 3-5 yrs.
He will keep the GM in the loop of any changes so the office staff can answer your questions should you make inquiries.
