For the next two weeks, Oʻahu drivers on the Likelike Highway are advised to turn on their lights and proceed through the Wilson Tunnel with caution.

Power and lights to the tunnel have been turned off for emergency repairs that began on June 4. Crews discovered that two overhead transmission circuits in the Koʻolau Mountains were damaged.

Hawaiian Electric Company is de-energizing both circuits to make repairs, and the lights in the tunnel will remain dark for the duration of the work.
