West Virginia seeks more federal road mileage
Federal Highway Administrator Bertram Tallamy called West Virginia’s request for added interstate mileage very meritorious while meeting with a delegation of lawmakers. The plan would add a north south route from Marietta Ohio through Charleston to Dublin Virginia intersecting U S Route 11 at Dublin. Ohio would extend the line to Canton. Officials warned that even with authorization there is no funding for building the highway and that WV would lose money from U S Route 60 if the route is added to federal hands.
