Posted on Aug 21, 2018 in Highways News, Main, News

Update as of 8:45 p.m. Tuesday, August 21, 2018: A 6 AM trip out of Wainiha and a 6:30 AM trip to Wainiha will be added to tomorrow’s convoy schedule.

WAINIHA – The Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) will be running the Sunday/Holiday schedule for limited access to the communities of Wainiha and Haena for Wednesday, Aug. 21, 2018.

The schedule change is at the request of community members that asked for more access to aid in their hurricane preparation activities in advance of Hurricane Lane. HDOT will modify ongoing emergency work to safely run the Sunday/Holiday schedule, which alternates trips between Wainiha and Hanalei every thirty minutes beginning at 7 a.m. For tomorrow only, HDOT will add a 6 a.m. trip out from the Wainiha Checkpoint and a 6:30 a.m. convoy from Hanalei into Wainiha.

Following coordination calls with the National Weather Service and federal, state, and county emergency management tomorrow morning, HDOT will announce any additional modification to the convoy schedules.
