HDOT advises motorists to use the H-2 Freeway as an alternate route and encourages the public to utilize traffic apps to stay informed of congested areas. A full closure is needed to accommodate the heavy equipment to install precast panels and transitions on the mauka ends of the Kipapa Stream (Roosevelt) Bridge.

Electronic message boards have been posted to alert motorists of the closures. Special Duty Police Officers will be on-site to assist with traffic control. Emergency vehicles, first responders, and TheBus have been notified of the roadwork and will be allowed through the closure. Roadwork is weather permitting.
