Reconstructing Moloalo Street at the Pouhala Station
Reconstructing Moloalo Street at the Pouhala Station --- Click here for more traffic information
Starting Monday, September 27, 2021, HART’s contractor, Royal Contracting Co., will begin work on Moloalo Street that will require the 24/7 closure of through-traffic directly fronting the Pouhala (Waipahu Transit Center) Station for approximately one month.

HART’s contractor will be reconstructing Moloalo Street, commence the installation of a tabletop pedestrian crossing and complete the remaining concrete work at the rail station entrance. This one month closure duration is necessary to ensure proper and adequate curing time for the concrete. Additionally, on-street parking along Moloalo Street will be restricted within the closure area.

Business access will be maintained for the Waipahu Business Center and the Waipahu Commercial Building. Driveway entrances from Farrington Highway onto Moloalo Street will not be impacted. However, please be aware that there will be an increase in activity in this area.
