Traffic Alert: Deck repairs to close Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam exit from H-1 West
HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - The westbound Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam off-ramp from the H-1 Freeway will be closed for the next two weekends starting Friday, the state Department of Transportation announced.
The exit will be closed from 7 p.m. on Fridays continuously through 1 a.m. on Mondays.
It’s all part of the state’s Airport Viaduct Improvements Project.
Officials said a full ramp closure is needed to survey the concrete deck, repair defective concrete and bridge joints, allow for necessary curing time, and install temporary striping in preparation for the planned surface treatment and concrete overlay.
Here’s an overview of alternative routes:
During closure hours, motorists on the westbound H-1 Freeway will be detoured to the Arizona Memorial/Stadium off-ramp (Exit 15A), where they may make a left turn onto Center Drive and continue into JBPHH. See photo below for details.
Additionally, those traveling on Nimitz Highway will be detoured to Camp Catlin Drive, where they may make a left turn onto Arizona Road, a left turn onto Salt Lake Boulevard, and a right turn onto Radford Drive, where motorists may continue to Makalapa Gate, or take a left onto Valkenburgh Street to access the JBPHH Pass and ID office. See photo below for details.
The DOT says first responders and TheBus will not be allowed through the work zone.
All work is weather permitting.
