South Kīhei Road is now closed between Ohukai Road and Kūlanihākoʻi Street. The closure will remain in place around the clock, weather permitting, through June 20, for repairs following the recent Kona storms. According to the County of Maui Department of Public Works, only local access will be allowed. Through traffic should expect delays and follow detour signs via Ohukai Road, Kenolio Road, Kaonoulu Street, Piʻilani Highway and Kūlanihākoʻi Street. The second phase of work is required so crews can fix Kona storm-related washouts and roadway damage. The first phase of repair work addressed South Kīhei Road between North Kīhei Road and Ohukai Road.
