State officials are warning drivers of lane closures due to roadwork in Mililani and Kapolei.
Three northbound lanes of the H-2 freeway closed at 9 Thursday night and were to remain so until 4 a.m. today between the Pineapple Road Overpass and Kipapa Bridge in Mililani for pavement replacement work. The state Department of Transportation will reopen the lanes after that but will again close them continuously from 9 tonight through 5 p.m. Sunday.
The DOT said two northbound lanes will remain open at all times because it will open the shoulder lane. Drivers can use Kamehameha Highway as an alternative to avoid the area.
In Kapolei the DOT will close the H-1 freeway eastbound between the Palailai Interchange and the Farrington Highway Overpass nightly from 9 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. from Sunday through March 3.
The Kalaeloa Boulevard onramp to the H-1 freeway eastbound also will close. Motorists will be detoured to Kalaeloa Boulevard from the Campbell Industrial Park offramp (Exit 1-A) and can continue eastbound on Kapolei Parkway, Kamokila Boulevard or the Wakea Street onramp.
Crews will be working on the Kapolei Interchange Complex phase 2 project. Special-duty officers will be stationed along the route.
Additionally, city crews will be re-striping the centerline of Manoa Road from the intersection of East Manoa Road to Oahu Avenue from 8 a.m to 3 p.m. Saturday. The city is advising drivers to avoid the area or use alternate routes. Local traffic will be able to access the area, but TheBus Route 5 might be affected, the city said.
All roadwork is weather permitting.
