Ala Wai Golf Course

HONOLULU – The City and County of Honolulu’s Department of Design and Construction (DDC) announces that construction on the vehicular bridge at Ala Wai Golf Course will start shortly. Construction will begin Monday, June 15, and will occur Mondays through Fridays, 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., excluding holidays. Work on the pedestrian bridge has been progressing, with the entire project scheduled for completion by the end of 2027.

Work in the vehicular bridge area will begin with the relocation of an existing waterline. To accommodate construction, a one-way contra-flow will be implemented on the bridge during work hours, controlled by a flagman. On weekends and holidays, the disturbed areas will be covered by steel road plates, and access will be open to two-way traffic.

The $3,309,000 project, awarded to MOCON Corporation, includes the removal of the existing, deteriorated pedestrian bridge and the construction of a new one between the driving range and its parking lot. It will also involve restoring the severely damaged existing concrete culvert and its associated vehicular bridge connecting Kapahulu Avenue to the golf course clubhouse and parking lot.
