Mayor Alan Arakawa answers some of the most-asked questions submitted to his office staff.

Aloha Mayor,

Q: Several weeks ago I read in The Maui News that the county had asked for bids for the refurbishment/resurfacing of Pu‘ukoli‘i Road. I understand that the bids have been submitted. So my question is, when do you expect the work to begin on this project? All of us on the Kā‘anapali Hillside are anxiously awaiting the news.

In advance, thank you for finally tackling this road improvement.

A: According to our Public Works department, the project bid opening was on Oct. 1 of this year, and the low bidder was Maui Kupono Builders. The contract is being processed, and the department hopes to complete the resurfacing by next summer.
