HONOLULU – The Hawaiʻi Department of Transportation (HDOT) notifies road users that three right lanes will be closed on the eastbound H-1 Freeway between the Kaimakani Street Overpass and the eastbound Nimitz Highway off-ramp (Exit 15) starting at 6:30 p.m. Friday, March 14 through 4 a.m., Monday, March 17.  

Crews will be closing the far-right lanes of eastbound H-1 Freeway, along with the lane to the Nimitz Highway off-ramp, to work on repaving the roadway in the shoulder and far right lane through the work area. Please note, the right shoulder will also be closed during this work. Motorists are advised to use Moanalua Freeway and alternate routes if possible during these work hours.  

This schedule will be in place over the next several weekends as crews work on remaining project activities including roadway reconstruction and repaving, guardrail installation, and striping and signage installations for the H-1 Freeway Salt Lake Rehabilitation Project. The estimated completion date for this project is May 2025, weather permitting.  

Motorists are reminded to drive with caution and follow all traffic control signs. Message boards have been posted to provide advanced notice of closure information. Special duty police officers will be on-site assisting with safety procedures. First responders and emergency vehicles have been notified of the closure. All work is weather permitting.
