  • Honoapi'ilani Highway from Ma'alaea to Lahaina.

  • A section of Pi'ilani Highway between Kipahulu and Kaupo closed since being damaged by an October 2006 earthquake.

  • The proposed location for the new Upcountry raw-water storage reservoirs.

  • Kahului Harbor.

    Hawai'i Congresswoman Mazie Hirono and Maui Mayor Charmaine Tavares are hosting the flyover.
