Navy closes Essex Road because of errant golf balls

By June Watanabe

POSTED: 01:30 a.m. HST, Mar 07, 2013

~~<p><strong>Question</strong>: Why was Essex Road closed near the golf course and cars prevented from getting to White Plains Beach? That road was opened for years and provided people with an easy access to the beach. Now we have to drive miles out of the way to get there. Also, a great path was recently put in along the road allowing families to bike and jog from Ka Makana to White Plains. Now there is a lock on the gate to the path. Why?</p>
<p><strong>Answer</strong>: The Navy closed Essex Road at least a decade ago for safety and other reasons.</p>
