TheBus to provide westbound shuttle service in Pearl City
News Release from City and County of Honolulu
Honolulu - Beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, February 10, 2015, and until further notice, Routes A, 40, 42, 53, and 62 buses traveling westbound on Kamehameha Highway from Kaahumanu Road to Waiawa Road will be detoured between 2 and 7 p.m. Monday through Friday (except holidays) due to rail project related lane closures near the Acacia Road intersection. Shuttle buses will substitute for the detoured main routes.
To help mitigate transit delays caused by the lane closures, shuttle buses will operate westbound from Kamehameha/Pali Momi, onto Farrington Highway, into Waipahu, to Mokuola then along Waipahu Street to Kamehameha Highway and up through Waipio Gentry to provide service to the affected area, beginning on February 10, 2015. The shuttle buses will operate from 2 to 7 p.m., Monday through Friday, except on holidays.
Westbound City Express Route A, Route 40 Makaha, Route 42 Ewa Beach, and Route 62 Wahiawa will detour from Kamehameha/Kaahumanu to Moanalua Road and H-1 West to the Waipahu Exit onto Farrington resuming the regular route.
Route 53 Pacific Palisades will detour from Kamehameha/Kaahumanu to Moanalua Road, Hoomalu Street, Hoolaulea Street to Waimano Home Road, resuming the regular route.
There will be no eastbound route detours.
The Department of Transportation Services is initiating these route detours and supplemental shuttle bus service to mitigate the traffic delays caused by rail construction and freeway work adjacent to and/or along this corridor.
For additional information, the public may contact TheBus at 848-5555 or visit www.thebus.org.
