Pali Highway town-bound lanes between Castle Junction and the tunnels were reopened Sunday morning after crews completed the cleanup from Wednesday’s landslide, according to the Hawaii Department of Transportation.

The town-bound lanes have been closed since Wednesday after torrential rains brought trees and mud down from the slope and across the roadway about 100 yards outside of the second tunnel.

Traffic was redirected to Likelike Highway or the H-3 freeway for travel between the windward side and Honolulu. There were also intermittent closures of a single lane on the Kailua-bound side of Pali Highway during the debris removal.

Crews worked to remove debris and unstable trees, clean the road, and replace safety reflectors before reopening the town-bound lanes Sunday. The lanes were reopened around 11 a.m., hours earlier than expected.
