Lane closures scheduled in Hilo for work on utility lines
The Department of Public Works Engineering Division will be conducting utility probing on Lanikaula Street, from Kīlauea Avenue to Manono Street. This work is scheduled to begin on May 29.
Utility probing assists contractors in locating utility lines and determining their depth from the road surface.
The utility probing will take place from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. During this time, one-lane closures will be in effect on Lanikaula Street. Commuters are encouraged to use detour routes via Kekuanaoa Street and East Kawili Street to avoid delays.
The Hawaiʻi Police Department will be on-site to direct traffic and ensure a smooth flow.
