Utility work to briefly close popular Oahu hiking trail
BRUCE ASATO / 2014
Maunawili Falls Trail will have intermittent closures on Tuesday morning.
Hawaiian Electric Company will be replacing a damaged utility pole Tuesday morning, resulting in the intermittent closure of the Maunawili Falls Trail during helicopter overflights.
The closures are scheduled for intermittent, two- to four-minute intervals between 9 and 11 a.m. Tuesday for the safety of hikers. HECO is replacing a pole on the hillside above Kelewina Place in the Maunawili area of Kailua.
Security personnel will be posted at the entrance to the trail and a few hundred yards into the trail to stop hikers from crossing into the flight path of the helicopter.
