The annual Waikōloa Hulu Street Evacuation Drill will be held from 9-11 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 15. The event allows Waikōloa Village residents an opportunity to familiarize themselves with their community’s emergency evacuation route.

During the drill, residents can practice driving the evacuation route from Hulu Street to Queen Kaʻahumanu Highway. Upon exiting the road, motorists will be directed to turn north onto Queen Kaʻahumanu Highway. Motorists wanting to go south will be instructed to turn in at Puako to change directions.

The drill started in 2022 following the Mana Road wildfire that forced the evacuation of Waikōloa Village during the previous year. It is organized by County of Hawaiʻi Civil Defense, in cooperation with the Police Department, the Waikōloa Community Emergency Response Team, and the Waikōloa Village Association Firewise Committee.
