No New Funding for Coalfields Expressway in Revised Plan
The Commonwealth Transportation Board adopted a six year plan Thursday that includes no new funding for the Coalfields Expressway in Southwest Virginia. The plan reduces the transportation program by $1 billion and yields little growth in highway improvements. Funding for Route 121 Coalfields Expressway Section A and Route 460 Kentucky Connector appears unavailable, though preliminary engineering continues.
