Yes, the former "rear exit" (left off the large parking lots - the one that leads to Route 130 via Kaluahine Street) has been closed, as of this past Sunday.
After I drove to its end and found it locked, I asked one of the "traffic controllers" (the same one who didn't stop me turning into it!). He said that too many people were using it as an entrance - and, as anyone who's been down it knows, it's way too narrow to allow two vehicles to pass.
That's too bad, because it was much safer to make a left onto Route 130 where the propane-gas seller's property is than at the entrance to the Market. Maybe the new left-turn holding area will help.
