West Virginia officials said work to widen a section of a turnpike is expected to start in a few months and continue for years, courtesy of $800 million in general obligation bonds.
The Register-Herald reports work is expected to begin in July and will widen the 8-mile section of the turnpike from the Interstate 64 split to U.S. 19 in Beckley.
State Department of Transportation Secretary Tom Smith said the project will cost about $80 million and last about two years.
Smith said another general obligation project he expects to start work soon is the Bridge to Nowhere in Mercer County.
