Maui County finished a three-day cleanup along Pulehu Road, clearing out a large homeless encampment and tons of debris.

• Crews removed about 48 tons of trash and other materials, plus 45 vehicles, from the stretch of road in the Puunene area.
• Three people from the encampment are now in emergency shelter, and 20 others moved into the county's new safe parking program instead.
• The cleanup targeted the section of Pulehu Road between Hookele Street and Hansen Road.

Outlook: The county will likely keep monitoring the cleared stretch to prevent the encampment from returning.
