Officials celebrate Pier 4 improvements
A state-funded project to upgrade the Big Island’s largest port facility has reached its final phase. On Friday morning, state Department of Transportation officials and lawmakers broke ground on the interisland cargo terminal of Hilo Harbor’s Pier 4 project. The ceremony, which included a blessing from kahu Brian Welch of Haili Congregational Church, took place on the most recently completed area of the multiphase project: a brand-new container yard, which expanded total capacity of the port to 10 acres for cargo operations. The project also included improvements to the port’s Kumau Street entrance, which widened the street from two lanes to four. “These improvements represent an important piece of the DOT’s ongoing harbor modernization program,” said Darrell Young, deputy director of the DOT harbors division. The modernization program includes work on harbors in Honolulu and Kawaihae. The final phase of the $68.5 million project is construction of the 602-foot reinforced concrete pier itself, which is set to be completed in July 2017. Initial estimates for the total project cost were $55 million. When complete, Pier 4 will be used exclusively for interisland cargo ships. Currently, the only interisland pier at the port is Pier 2, which was built in 1920. http://hawaiitribune-herald.com/news/local-news/officials-celebrate-pier-4-improvements
