Ironman Qualifiers to Delay Access to Hawaiʻi & Hāmākua Solid Waste Facilities Tomorrow June 4

On Saturday, June 4, the IRONMAN World Championship will be conducting a half-distance qualifying race for athletes vying to compete in the 2022 Ironman World Championship triathlon in West Hawai‘i in October. The bicycle course uses Akoni Pule Highway and the section of Queen Ka‘ahumanu Highway north of Mauna Lani Drive.

Recycling centers and solid waste transfer stations in North Hawai‘i and Hāmākua will be affected by this race and residents in Hāwī, Honoka‘a, Waimea, and Pa‘auilo should expect delays in service as Solid Waste Operations will need to take alternative routes to the West Hawai‘i Sanitary Landfill.

Please adjust your schedules as appropriate for your needs.

We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience and understanding. Please
