Governor Justice Signs Bill Allocating $150 Million in Supplemental for Highway Funding

2024-05-30 Governor signs SB 1002

Governor Jim Justice signed Senate Bill 1002 on May 30th, giving the West Virginia Division of Highways (WVDOH) $150 million in supplemental highway funding for paving projects throughout the Mountain State. The Governor asked the Legislature to approve the extra funding during the first special legislative session in early in May. The money is in addition to $190 million received by the WVDOH in federal highway funds. The $150 million supplemental budget appropriation will be used exclusively for paving projects in every district in West Virginia and will greatly increase the ability of the WVDOH to pave the roads West Virginians drive on every day. A list of proposed paving projects provided by the Division of Highways to the Legislature in support of this funding request may be found by clicking here.
