The head of the West Virginia Parkways Authority told lawmakers that two big turnpike projects should be finished by the end of the year.
Parkways Authority Executive Director Jeff Miller said Tuesday that the Beckley and Bluestone travel plazas on the West Virginia Turnpike will be open to the public by Dec. 15.
Both service plazas closed in 2022 for demolition and reconstruction. They will reopen by year’s end with more amenities at a cost of $122 million.
Miller told lawmakers that most of the work will be complete for the holiday travel season.
“I think a majority of it will be done, and the buildings will be completed and we’ll be able to get those open back up to the traveling public,” he said.
Miller also said that the toll plazas will begin to accept credit card payments by the end of the year. They will continue to accept cash and EZ-Pass.
