Valley Turnpike to be transferred to Virginia state control
Virginia legislators discuss transferring the Valley Turnpike from private stockholders to state ownership. The plan guarantees perpetual maintenance by state funds, replaces toll gates, and pays stockholders about 20 cents on the dollar for their shares while relieving the Valley of future maintenance costs. The move aims to keep the road open between north and south and to ensure traffic safety oversight by the state.
