Rebuilding The Road To Hana, Maui

30 July 2001 - 2:00pm

There are only two ways into the isolated town of Hana on the island of Maui. But a government decision ripples through the local economy.

"The district's splendid isolation has allowed it to preserve much of what makes it special -- natural beauty and an unhurried way of life. But conveniences that urban residents take for granted -- ready access to goods and services -- are not always easily available... With an average of 1,200 to 1,400 cars traveling the road every day, residents fear a visit to heavenly Hana and beyond could soon become the road trip from hell."
