Bad weather pushes completion of Puainako Street Resurfacing Project to next month

Due to 77 weather-related unworkable days and construction delays, the new estimated completion date for the Puainako Street Resurfacing Project is September while it was initially meant to be finished this month.

To ease impact on the surrounding schools, the remaining work on this project will be completed as night work, between the hours of 5 p.m. to 5 a.m. There will be a nightly single-lane closure in the direction of work.

Special duty police officers will be on-site to direct traffic during the alternating lane closure.

Remaining work on Puainako Street includes: the installation of loop detectors and striping. These installations will be completed during daytime work hours and will be announced as scheduled.

Electronic message boards will be posted to notify motorists of closure information. Motorists are advised to drive with caution and to follow all traffic control signs through the work zone area. All work is weather permitting.

The final completion date of this project is subject to change per these conditions.
