The County of Hawai’i Department of Public Works Engineering Division and its contractor, Goodfellow Brothers, are continuing work on the Waikōloa Road Rehabilitation Project, which extends from Māmalahoa Highway to Queen Kaʻahumanu Highway in West Hawaiʻi.
Workers are generally on-site Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. (to 5:30 p.m. if and when necessary, to complete the daily paving operations to ensure safe conditions for the public), weather and conditions permitting. Traffic delays can be expected as large trucks, equipment and personnel will be on the roadway.
“This is a special reminder to all bicyclists using the Waikōloa Road during construction that bicyclists MUST obey traffic regulations, traffic control signs and instructions from traffic flaggers,” county officials said Monday. “This is an active construction zone and for their safety and the safety of vehicles and workers, please follow the rules of the road.

“If possible, bicyclists and motorists are encouraged to utilize other routes, especially during working hours,” officials continued.
