Crews plan to close three to four eastbound lanes between the Aiea/Halawa off-ramp (Exit 13A) and the H-1/H-2 merge from 7 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14, to 4:30 a.m. Sunday, according to the state Department of Transportation's weekly Oʻahu lane closure schedule.
If that work is canceled, HDOT lists a backup westbound closure between the Kaamilo Street overpass and the Waiawa Road overpass from 7 p.m. to 8 a.m.
The work continues Monday, Nov. 16, through Thursday, Nov. 19, when three to four eastbound lanes between the Aiea Heights Drive overpass and the H-1/H-2 merge will close nightly from 7 p.m. to 4:30 a.m.
The alternate for those nights is a westbound closure between the Kaamilo Street overpass and the merge during the same hours.
Each closure starts with three lanes at 7 p.m. and grows to four lanes at 8 p.m., and only one direction will be worked at a time.
All of it is part of the Pearl City and Waimalu Viaduct Improvements project.
Closer to Pearlridge, three left or two right lanes will close on the eastbound H-1 between the Kaonohi Street overpass and the Valkenburgh Street underpass from 8:30 p.m. to 4 a.m. on Monday, Nov. 16, and Thursday, Nov. 19, for striping on the H-1 Salt Lake Rehabilitation project.
On surface streets, one left lane of westbound Moanalua Road between Kaahumanu Street and the westbound H-1 off-ramp will close from 9:30 p.m. Saturday to 4 a.m. Sunday so crews can install delineators.
During the day next week, one right lane on westbound Kamehameha Highway fronting Kuleana Street will close from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday, for sewer line connection and manhole work.
Up in Halawa, the Halawa and H-3 off-ramps from the westbound H-201 Moanalua Freeway will fully close from 9 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 18, and Thursday, Nov. 19, with drivers detoured to the Stadium off-ramp.
Also on the H-201, one left lane in each direction between the Halawa/H-3 off-ramps and the Ala Kapuna Street overpass will close weekdays Nov. 16 through 20 for sign foundation work, from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. westbound and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. eastbound.
Heading west, the right shoulder of the Waipahu off-ramp (Exit 8B) from the westbound H-1 will close from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday, for slope improvements.
HDOT notes that all work is weather permitting and that schedules can change without notice, so leave a few extra minutes and drive with aloha through the cones. |
