The Waikaalulu Bridge No. 44-5, located on Paauilo Mauka Road between Hookahua and Kukuipapa roads, will be closed 24 hours a day beginning today and continuing through Friday.
The bridge will be closed for repair work. It initially was scheduled to be closed only from 8:30 a.m.-2 p.m.
During the process of removing the bridge railings, county Public Works crews found that the bridge deteriorated more than anticipated, to the point of requiring replacement.
The bridge should reopen about 2 p.m. Friday, weather and construction conditions permitting. Drivers are asked to find alternate routes during the closure.
