Three lanes of Kamehameha Highway heading west between Honomanu Street and Kihale Street were blocked this afternoon due to a 8-inch water main break. One lane has since been re-opened.

The Honolulu Police Department sent the alert at 3:35 p.m. today.

Board of Water Supply crews are responding to the main break located near Boston’s Pizza in Aiea where it also broke on Wednesday. Boston’s Pizza and Tamura’s are without water, but they are also closed.

Traffic is being diverted onto Honomanu Street. One ewa-bound lane open was opened just before 5 p.m. Expect delays in the area and use alternate routes.
