SOUTH KAINALU DRIVE TREE REMOVAL

(Friday, July 6, 2012)—A Department of Parks and Recreation Urban Forestry Division crew will remove two Royal Poinciana trees at 160 South Kainalu Drive in Kailua on July 9 and 10, 2012.   Department crews anticipate minimal disruption to traffic, but motorists are advised to drive with caution, as periodically one lane may be open to traffic in both directions between 8:30 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.

            The trees are being removed due to decay and will be replaced with Royal Poinciana trees.
