Users of the Hilo Transfer Station on Friday, August 5, will be directed to take an alternate route
to dispose of their trash at the solid waste chutes. The Department of Public Works will be
repaving the access route.

This repaving is necessary to improve the condition of the road and to reduce wear on vehicles.

The transfer station will be open for normal operations, but delays are possible. Weather
permitting, work will be completed in one day. Traffic control personnel will be directing users.

The Department of Environmental Management thanks the public for their patience and
understanding.
