Work starts tomorrow on Kalanianaole pipe

Beginning tomorrow night, commuters using Kalanianaole Highway in the Aina Haina area might see traffic delays in the eastbound lanes on an emergency bypass sewage line.

Between East Hind Drive and Puuikena Drive, there will be a contra-flow lane in the Koko Head direction from 8 to 11 p.m. From 11 p.m. to 5 a.m., only one Koko Head-bound lane will be open.

Construction on the temporary bypass began five weeks ago and is expected to be completed in August.

The bypass gives the city the two to three years it needs to design and construct a permanent replacement for the underground sewage pipe that ruptured three times in February because of corrosion.

Reduction in Leeward water needed today

The Board of Water Supply asks Leeward residents to conserve water for a 24-hour period beginning at 6 a.m. today so they can replace the pipe servicing the Waianae Coast that has been plagued by water main breaks in recent years.

Residents from Barbers Point to Lualualei are asked to use water for essential needs only, such as drinking, cooking and personal hygiene.

The Waianae-bound lanes of Farrington Highway near the Hakimo Road intersection might be closed due to the construction.
