PMAR will reduce the <br /> number of miles driven by commuters, provide <br /> an alternate and shorter evacuation route for <br /> Puna Makai, and help to reduce traffic <br /> congestion in the area. <br /> <br /> JY/dwe <br /> Comm.: ~ W /k . <br /> Hawaii County is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer Ref.
