Maui residents and businesses are advised of upcoming traffic modifications this Saturday, September 13th. According to Maui Now's recent report, the Hawai‘i Department of Transportation (HDOT) will be closing portions of Nāpilihau Street and Honoapi‘ilani Highway near Nāpili Plaza. The closures are necessary for the installation of a new traffic signal at the intersection.
This roadwork may cause delays for both commuters and businesses operating in the area. Businesses located near the affected roadways should inform their employees and customers about the potential for increased travel times. Entrepreneurs who rely on deliveries or customer traffic through this area should consider alternative routes if possible.
The HDOT frequently updates road closure information, as seen in the Hawaii Department of Transportation's news section. The department also posted about lane closures on Keawe Street, as reported by the Hawaii Department of Transportation. Staying informed about these types of infrastructure projects is important for business owners and residents alike to minimize disruptions to their daily operations.
Businesses can mitigate potential negative impacts by proactively communicating with customers and employees, adjusting schedules, and considering alternative routes. Advanced planning and awareness of these traffic updates can help Maui businesses maintain smooth operations during the construction period.
