HONOLULU, July 11, 2022 - Hawaiian Electric crews will be replacing overhead lines across Kunia Road, south of Plantation Road, Monday to Friday, July 18-22, as part of routine maintenance to improve system reliability in Central Oahu. Work originally planned tomorrow through Friday, July 12-15, has been cancelled and will be rescheduled.

Safety measures will be in place to alert motorists ahead of the work zones where multiple bucket trucks will be staged, and flagmen and special duty police will direct traffic.
