HILO – The Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) notifies Hawaii Island motorists that the AM northbound contraflow on Keaau-Pahoa Road (Route 130) between Shower Drive and Kaloli Drive will not operate Monday, Dec. 23 through Friday, Jan. 3, during the Hawaii Department of Education’s (HIDOE) scheduled winter break for public schools.

The Highway 130 normal contraflow hours are between 5:30 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. Motorists are reminded that this schedule does not include public school holidays and state holidays, as the contraflow is designed to alleviate the morning rush hour traffic that occurs when school is in session.

HDOT will continue to keep the public notified of departmental information on our HDOT website at hidot.hawaii.gov, where you may also signup to receive our latest news release updates.
