Highway relief for West Virginia inches through legislature
West Virginia lawmakers consider a House approved plan to allocate 35.2 million from general revenue to the Department of Highways, well short of Governor Moore’s request, while another measure would permit up to 219.8 million in federal highway funds. The package would raise the department’s next year budget toward 473 million, with current spending at 422 million, as nonhighway items and bond authority face ongoing debate.
