The Hawaii Department of Transportation said Thursday there will be work install underground cable between Monday and April 22 on Kalanianaole Avenue in Keaukaha.

Work will take place between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, weather permitting.

The work zone begins at the Hawaiian Telcom roundabout pullbox when leaving the intersection of Kamehameha Avenue and Kanoelehua Avenue and ends within the portion of Kalanianaole Avenue previously closed for the Kalanianaole Avenue Improvements.

There will not be additional lane closures or lengthening of the existing closure for the installation. The plan is to shift traffic at the pullbox location to an adjacent lane so motorists can skirt the work zone and maneuver to enter the roundabout safely.

In addition, DOT anticipates the start of a paving project between Kauhane Avenue to approximately 300 feet west of Silva Street the first two weeks of April. This will be night work and DOT will update the public on the schedule as that date nears.
