You may have wondered recently: what's up with the white spray painted numbers and tiny pink ribbons covering the streets in Laie?

Spray painted numbers and ribbons have recently covered Laie's streets and sidewalks

"The markers are part of preparation work by the City & County of Honolulu Department of Transportation Services to ready Laie's roadways for repaving," said Jeff Tyau, Vice President of Operations at land management company, Hawaii Reserves, Inc.

 

The exact start date of the repaving has not yet been announced by the City, but the project is expected to start sometime in the latter half of August and should take about a month to complete. During that time there will be some localized inconvenience as City crews resurface the streets.

 

Pane Meatoga, president of the Laie Community Association, said, "It's great to see some of our tax dollars coming back to benefit our residents on this side of the island, and we're grateful to everyone at the City."

 

Meatoga added, "All of the pieces had to come together - the hard work of the City's Transportation Services staff implementing the program, Mayor Caldwell's promise to repave 1500 miles of our roadways in his first term, and City Council Chair Martin's funding of these critical maintenance projects."

 

 

We'll keep everyone updated as more details about this project are announced by the City.

 

Mahalo,
