Designed to link Pearl Harbor via I-H1 and Wheeler AAF, Interstate H-2 was part of the 1960 plan of freeways for Honolulu. Construction on the freeway began in 1972 and was completed in 1975. Today, I-H2 primarily serves commuters from inland Oahu to Honolulu, and has corresponding peak flows during the morning and evening commutes.
