The Hawaiʻi Department of Transportation (HDOT) has announced that emergency utility repairs will begin on Wednesday, June 4. This work involves deenergizing lights in the Wilson Tunnel due to two damaged overhead transmission circuits discovered in the Koʻolau mountains.
Hawaiian Electric Company (HECO) will conduct the repairs over a two-week period. During this time, power to the Wilson Tunnel will be turned off, resulting in dark conditions within the tunnel.
HDOT advises motorists to turn on their vehicle lights and exercise caution when approaching and driving through Wilson Tunnel. “We apologize for any inconvenience,” stated HDOT.
