Traffic Advisory Kapiolani Blvd Water System Improvement Update June 27, 2014
HONOLULU – As part of the Board of Water Supply’s (BWS) on-going water system improvement project on Kapiolani Boulevard, the contractor is continuing installation work on a new 12-inch water main. Motorists are advised to expect the following traffic modifications:
Monday, June 30, to Thursday, July 3, from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
• The closure of two Ewa-bound lanes and one Diamond Head-bound lane of Kapiolani Boulevard between McCully Street and Wiliwili Street.
• There will be NO WORK on Friday, July 4, Independence Day.
Motorists are advised to use alternate routes during construction hours, if possible, and to allow for additional travel time. Drivers that must travel through the work area are asked to please abide by posted traffic signs.
The contractor is replacing approximately 2,800 feet of 12-inch water main installed in 1938 and approximately 1,000 feet of 8-inch water main installed in 1953. The renewal of the water system will improve fire protection, enhance water service to residents in the area, and reduce the likelihood of water main breaks.
