NAWILIWILI — Motorists are able to utilize the parking lot at Nawiliwili Park, again.
The County of Kaua‘i reported that crews completed repairs on the lot on Wednesday. The parking lot was shuttered by the county Department of Parks and Recreation on Tuesday for repairs to damage caused by the high surf and strong winds over the weekend.
“It was about 4:30 in the morning,” a resident who had been sleeping near the parking lot said. “The waves were coming up through all the air holes along the sea wall. There were rocks everywhere. You couldn’t even bicycle through there.”
The DOPR crew, with the help of park rangers, closed the parking lot and driveway section to make the necessary repairs.
