Fighting An Urban Camping Ban And Living With Road Work, This West Virginia Morning

Listen

On this West Virginia Morning, Morgantown’s City Council passed a camping ban aimed at addressing homelessness in the city. Community members have vowed to oppose the ban and that opposition has coalesced into a formal petition to repeal the ban.

Also, road construction challenges around the state are not confined to the interstates. In Huntington, a nearly two-year upgrade to one of the city’s main traffic arteries is nearing completion. But some are concerned that the traffic element of the upgrade will remain a challenge.
