HONOLULU – The Hawaiʻi Department of Transportation (HDOT) has announced additional daytime work on Farrington Highway, from Nānākuli to Ko Olina, aimed at improving safety along the highway.
Due to the proximity of turtle nesting sites in the area, the work will be divided into day and night schedules. A single lane in each direction on Farrington Highway will be closed from Monday through Friday, between 7 a.m. and 1:30 p.m., from Pōhakunui Avenue to Aliʻinui Drive. The westbound lane will close at 7 a.m., followed by the eastbound lane at 9:30 a.m.
The planned improvements include median barriers to reduce head-on crashes, shoulder rumble strips, pavement reconstruction and widening in appropriate sections, and relocation of drainage and signage to support these safety measures.
This daytime work is in addition to nightly closures on Farrington Highway between Laʻaloa Street and the Kalaeloa Interchange from 7 p.m. to 6:15 p.m., Monday through Thursday evenings. Further information on these safety countermeasures is available at https://highways.dot.gov/safety/proven-safety-countermeasures.
The project is expected to last for 33 weeks with an estimated completion date set for December 2025. All work schedules are weather permitting and subject to change based on conditions.
“HDOT thanks the public for its cooperation as we work to maintain safe facilities.”
