'''Interstate&nbsp;H-2''' ('''H-2''', named the '''Veterans Memorial Freeway''') is an intrastate [[Interstate Highway]] located on the island of [[Oʻahu]] in the U.S. state of [[Hawaii]]. The north–south freeway connects [[Interstate H-1|H-1]] in [[Pearl City, Hawaii|Pearl City]] to [[Mililani, Hawaii|Mililani]] and [[Wahiawa, Hawaii|Wahiawa]], where it terminates at [[Hawaii Route 99|Route&nbsp;99]] near [[Schofield Barracks]]. 

The Interstate System was expanded to Hawaii in 1960 along several corridors, with H-2 assigned to the north–south connection between the [[Honolulu]] area and Wahiawa. Construction began in 1971, and the first section opened to traffic on October 3, 1974. The rest of H-2 was completed on February 21, 1977.
