MILILANI – The City and County of Honolulu Department of Design and Construction wishes to inform the public about the upcoming rehabilitation of streets in Mililani Mauka. Work is expected to start on Monday, October 7, 2024, and will last about one year, barring unforeseen weather conditions. The project work hours will be Monday through Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., excluding holidays. 

This project, aimed at enhancing driving conditions and roadway visibility, includes resurfacing and reconstructing asphalt pavement, adjustments to manholes, new pavement striping, and pavement markers. These improvements will not only benefit the community but also enhance pedestrian access with the reconstruction of sections of the existing concrete sidewalks, curbs, and gutters, and the installation of new concrete curb ramps.

The rehabilitation of streets project will take place in the following locations:

The contractor will only work one part of the project area at a time. Construction will be carried out in smaller phases to minimize impacts on the public and keep traffic flowing smoothly. Residents and local traffic, such as delivery services, trash collection, and emergency services, will be allowed during construction.

In addition, “NO PARKING” signs will be placed along the sides of roadways one week before work begins to notify the public of upcoming construction work areas. We ask drivers to observe the dates and times of these notices, as vehicles parked on posted streets will be towed at the owner’s expense. The public should anticipate detours and lane and road closure delays and allow extra travel time while navigating the area. It is important to observe all traffic controls, posted signs, and Special Duty Police Officers. 

Please note the following information:

New asphalt is hot, black, and tacky, and walking or driving through uncured pavement can result in serious burns or tracking marks on driveways/sidewalks. Therefore, the contractor may delay access through hazardous construction areas during work hours for the safety and protection of the public.

We will make every effort to complete this essential work as quickly and with as little inconvenience to the community as possible. We appreciate the public’s assistance and cooperation during this project and thank everyone for their patience and support as we work to improve roads in our community. Please direct any questions or comments to the City and County of Honolulu, Department of Design and Construction, at (808) 768-8400.
