Grandview State Park may get an aerial cable car again as routing changes for Interstate 64 shift traffic toward Beckley. State official Dr. Warden Lane said plans to move the New River Gorge project back to Grandview could occur, with Interstate 64 bringing U.S. 60 traffic closer to Grandview than current routes. Interstate Construction Co. of Pittsburgh will be told of the shift and may reconsider its installation plans. Public hearings for Interstate 79, set for Morgantown November 8, Fairmont November 9, and Clarksburg November 10, will proceed at 10 am in each courthouse.
