This road is an engineering wonder, and perhaps the most expensive (on a cost per mile basis) of any Interstate constructed. It crosses the Ko'olau mountain along a viaduct and through a long tunnel. For many years, the completion of this highway was uncertain, as it runs through culturally and environmentally sensitive areas and some park lands were used. But now, this is a beautiful freeway running through a tropical forest and over the rugged spine of windward O'ahu.
