Portions of Kinoole Street in downtown Hilo will be resurfaced over the next three weeks, starting Monday.
The resurfacing will cover 1.43 miles of Kinoole and will cost about $200,000. All roadwork will take place 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, weather permitting.
The Hawaii County Department of Public Works is requesting that no cars be parked on the roadside for the duration of the resurfacing work.
DPW said to expect one lane to be closed during the day, with the Hawaii Police Department directing traffic.

The first section to be repaved will be on Monday and Tuesday from Wailuku Drive to Waianuenue Avenue.
