Hello Mayor:

Q: The road near Rice Park is very bumpy. Any chance it will be repaved anytime in the near future?

A: Our Public Works Department says the project to resurface Lower Kula Road was bid out recently, with construction anticipated to begin in Spring 2018. The resurfacing will run from the intersection of Naalae Road past the park to Kula Highway.
