Film shoot to close blowhole lookout

The Halona Blowhole lookout, parking lot and cove will be closed from 5:30 a.m. today to 8 a.m. Saturday for work on an unspecified upcoming feature film by Universal, according to city officials.

Film crews will need to stage cranes and other heavy equipment, so the area needs to be closed for safety reasons, according to city officials. The film crew also will use parking stalls at the Koko Head Shooting Complex and Sandy Beach Park, although those sites will remain open, city officials said.

Kalanianaole Highway will remain open, although drivers should expect some delays. Police will be on hand to direct traffic.
