On Maui the main road to the west side (Lahaina, Kaanapali) is closed. Trouble is, the only other way of access has stuff like this on it and it's barely one lane wide in places !
You have to figure that reopening the Honoapi'ilani highway has to be the number one priority on Maui, now that the power is back on. That other road (the Kahekili Highway) isn't really built to handle even moderate traffic under normal conditions.

Yes indeed. Can you imagine heavy two way traffic around Kahakuloa ? Total chaos & someone would probably go over the edge.
Mind you, Hwy30 is no joy sometimes, we made the mistake of arriving on Halloween about three years ago, took three hours to get from airport to rented Kahana condo as it seemed the whole island was going to Lahaina for the party - and a late night wreck closed it until about 10am the next day !
