Having 2 lanes each way with designated turn lanes and bus zones would also fix the problem, but would cost more money.

Having 2 lanes each way without designated turn lanes and bus zones does nothing to fix the problem at all.

It seems like ideally there would be two lanes, "slower traffic keep right" with a central turn lane, at least through the subdivision areas. I don't see the need for it for the last leg of the road into Puna, traffic seems to flow just fine a little past Ainaloa. Wasn't there a bypass road planned a few years back toward the back of HPP? I've heard it mentioned, don't know much about it though...
That bottleneck just past the high school is the worst part of it that I've seen, but merging anywhere before Ainaloa wouldn't solve the problem, there needs to be two lanes.
