Sinkhole closes Old Cane Haul Road above Pahala

Police say the privately-owned Old Cane Haul Road above Pahala is closed until further notice because of a hole measuring about 4-feet in length, 2-feet in width and 8-feet in depth.

The integrity of an approximate 30-foot section of the road is suspected of being compromised by a deteriorating drainage culvert buried beneath the roadway.

Road closure signs have been placed on either side of the affected location, and drivers are strongly advised against crossing this area and should use alternate routes until repairs are made by the landowners.
