Dump truck crashes into Waiawa overpass, closing two lanes on H-1

Sep 04, 2026

A truck hit an overpass on Oahu's H-1 freeway and shut down two eastbound lanes, snarling afternoon traffic but hurting no one.

  • The trailer was tilted upward as it drove and slammed into the Waiawa overpass, getting stuck.
  • The truck pulled away from the crash and stopped about half a mile down the road.
  • No injuries were reported, but two eastbound lanes closed and traffic backed up badly.
  • Truck drivers are supposed to run a full safety check before starting out, and some companies skip it.

Outlook: Expect delays until the lanes reopen and the overpass is checked for damage.
