Kahekili Highway Intersection Improvements
Intersection improvements on Kamehameha Highway at Kahekili Highway, replacing a busy signalized junction with a modern roundabout designed to improve safety and traffic flow for windward commuters.
Working for the Hawaiʻi Department of Transportation, MIRA took on one of Windward Oʻahu's most visible roadway improvements. The scope reshapes the intersection, upgrades drainage, and coordinates staging around adjacent businesses and Kahaluʻu Pond.
Maintaining access through a busy corridor requires careful phasing, clear traffic control, and close communication with the department and surrounding community.
