The state of Hawaii's Department of Transportation have announced that construction on the H-1 freeway airport viaduct will commence shortly and could affect traffic on Nimitz Highway from now until the middle of 2016. The viaduct, which was built in the 1970s is in needs of repair, and as a result the DOT has allocated $15.6 million to resolve the problem on a 3 mile stretch of road. Construction will begin on Friday nights and will commence until Sunday night every single weekend for the next two years. All ramps to the airport will remain open unless specifically announced. The federal government will be providing 80 percent of the projects cost and the state will pay for the remainder.
