Lighting upgrades underway at Kamehameha Park tennis courts

Hawai‘i County Parks and Recreation is in the process of upgrading lighting at the tennis courts at Kamehameha Park in Kapa‘au.

The project started Aug. 4 and involves removing the old, non-functioning lights and installing new lighting and electrical infrastructure.

Work is scheduled to take about 60 days.

Temporary weekday closures of the tennis courts could occur during the project period. Courts will generally reopen after 3:30 p.m. weekdays and remain available on weekends and holidays.

Parks and Recreation asks for the public’s cooperation in observing posted safety notices and closures throughout the project.

“Mahalo for your patience as we make this important park improvement,” the Office of Hawai‘i County Mayor Kimo Alameda said in an announcement about the project.
