That’s right, some of the parking on the Ala Wai along with the bike lane will return. The city is going to start removing the pipes that run along the Ala Wai from Walina Street to Seaside Avenue. This comes just after we wondered how will the Ala Wai get clean?
The city has been working on a bypass system that started in May of 2006 and has been using that system to replace the old pipes that currently remove waste from Waikiki. The city has been successful in replacing and upgrading some of the pipes and plans to continue the work to upgrade the whole system.
This upgrade will hopefully remove all of the unsightly pipes that line the Ala Wai but the city isn’t sure if they will remove the small portion between Seaside and Lewers just yet.
Oh yeah, this also means that one lane on the Ala Wai will be closed between 8:30 am and 3:30 pm along this street so workers can work during the day. And this will go on for several weeks.
You can read more about the project and get updates at www.beachwalkbypass.com. I had no idea sites like that existed for the city. I am actually learning about the project that I never thought was going to end (or start again).
