The H-1 Freeway Zipper Lane will be in place from 5 p.m. Sunday to allow for overnight work in the west-bound direction between Kunia Road and Paiwa Street.

Motorists will not be able to use the Zipper Lane, however, until its regular operation begins at 5:30 a.m. Monday.

Part of an ongoing freeway resurfacing project, the early deployment of the Zipper Lane will separate construction areas from freeway traffic. The construction work will take place between 9 p.m. and 4:30 a.m.

Contractor Grace Pacific Corp. is scheduled to complete the $4.6 million "pavement preservation" project in June.
