A downed telephone wire on Kuhio Highway in Kapaa Monday morning prompted police to divert traffic in the area for about four hours.
The line was reported down about 6:30 a.m. Kauai police diverted traffic heading toward Kawaihau Road from Kuhio Highway to Hauaala Road.
Hawaiian Telcom crews arrived on the scene about 10:30 a.m. The obstruction was cleared and the road reopened just before 11 a.m.
