HONOLULU – The Hawaii Department of Transportation (HDOT) advises Oahu motorists that the westbound H-1 Freeway will be closed between the Makakilo Drive overpass and the Campbell Industrial Park/Barbers Point Harbor offramp (Exit 1) during the overnight hours of 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. on Sunday night, May 20, 2018 through Monday morning, May 21, 2018.

A full closure of the H-1 Freeway is necessary for crews to utilize the westbound lanes to perform girder work on the Farrington Highway overpass as part of the Kapolei Interchange Complex, Phase 2 project. An additional short notice full closure of the H-1 westbound between the Makakilo Drive overpass and the Campbell Industrial/Barbers Point offramp (Exit 1) may take place from Tuesday night, May 22, 2018 through Thursday night, May 24, 2018 to account for availability of necessary equipment for the girder work.

Motorists traveling on the westbound H-1 Freeway will be directed to Makakilo Drive via the Makakilo/Kapolei/Kalaeloa offramp (Exit 2) and may continue on Farrington Highway/Kamokila Boulevard, Wakea Street, and the Farrington Highway onramp to return to the westbound H-1 Freeway. See detour map below.
