Weekend road closures continue

Advertiser Staff

The State Department of Transportation has announced several road projects that will affect traffic through Monday at the following locations:

  • The H-2 Freeway northbound Mililani Mauka off-ramp (Exit 5A) will be closed 24-hours a day through 4:00 a.m. Monday for pavement resurfacing.

    Mililani Mauka-bound motorists are advised to proceed along the H-2 Freeway to the following Mililani Town off-ramp (Exit 5B), turn right onto Meheula Parkway, and make a U-turn at the Kuahelani Avenue intersection or to use alternate routes such as Kamehameha Highway.

    Additional police officers will be on-site at the Kuahelani Avenue intersection directing traffic to minimize congestion in the area.

    Electronic traffic messageboards are also posted in the area to notify motorists of the closure.

  • Right lane closure on the H-1 Freeway in the westbound direction from the Pali Highway overpass to the Liliha Street overpass from 4 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. today for shoulder dredging work.

    During this time, the H-1 westbound School Street off-ramp (Exit 21A) will also be closed.

    Westbound H-1 motorists are advised to use the previous Vineyard Boulevard off-ramp (Exit 22) and turn right onto Nuuanu Avenue to access the Pauoa area. Roadwork is weather-permitting.

  • Three rightmost lanes of the H-1 Freeway Airport Viaduct will be closed in the westbound direction from the Airport on-ramp to the Kamehameha Highway/Aloha Stadium/Arizona Memorial off-ramp (Exit 15A) from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., today for concrete pavement repair work.

    All on-and-off-ramps will remain open during this time.

    Single lane closures may also be implemented on Nimitz Highway below the viaduct during these hours as a safety precaution.

    Westbound motorists are advised to use caution while driving through the work area, to allow for extra travel time or to use alternate routes including the H-201 Moanalua Freeway or Nimitz Highway underneath the H-1 Airport Viaduct.

    Roadwork is weather-permitting.
