Corridor H Highway Authority

09/01/2026

The Corridor H Highway Authority is extremely disappointed and frustrated by yet another attempt to delay the completion of Corridor H.

For decades, West Virginians have waited for this highway to be completed. The Wardensville-to-Virginia state line section has undergone years of planning, environmental review, public involvement, and regulatory scrutiny. At some point, the process must be allowed to result in progress.

We remain optimistic that the federal court will recognize these efforts for what we believe they are: another attempt to delay a project that has been studied, reviewed, and debated for decades.

Every additional delay has consequences. It increases costs, prolongs uncertainty, and pushes further into the future the safety, economic development, and connectivity benefits that a completed Corridor H will provide to the people of West Virginia.

The Corridor H Highway Authority remains committed to seeing this project through to completion. We have confidence in the extensive process that has brought the project to this point, and we are hopeful that construction on the Wardensville-to-Virginia state line section will be able to move forward as planned.

West Virginians have waited long enough. It is time to finish Corridor H!

After the West Virginia Department of Transportation (WVDOT) awarded a contract to construct a controversial section of Corridor H earlier this summer, citizen groups opposing construction have now filed an injunction seeking to halt it.

Another Major Win for Corridor H!

Today marks another significant milestone in the effort to complete Corridor H. The West Virginia Division of Highways has awarded the first construction contract for the Wardensville to Virginia State Line section, with an $85.4 million contract awarded to begin construction from Trout Run Cutoff Road to Waites Run Road in Hardy County. This work includes grading, drainage, bridges, and the first paved miles of this long-awaited section.

This announcement comes just weeks after the opening of the Kerens to Parsons section and demonstrates that Corridor H continues to move forward across the entire corridor.

“Every contract awarded, every mile constructed, and every section opened brings us one step closer to completing this transformational highway,” said Robbie Morris, Chairman of the Corridor H Highway Authority. “Corridor H has always been about connecting communities, improving safety, creating economic opportunity, and strengthening the future of West Virginia,” said Morris.

We congratulate Triton Construction, the West Virginia Division of Highways, and everyone whose hard work continues to move this project forward.

The momentum is real! Let’s keep it up and finish Corridor H!

Another major win for Corridor H!

Thank you to Senator Shelley Moore Capito for securing $23 million for the Wardensville to Virginia state line section of Corridor H. This investment is another important step toward moving this long-awaited section from planning to construction.

As we celebrate the opening of the Kerens to Parsons section, we can’t lose sight of the work that remains. Completing Corridor H has been a generational effort that will improve safety, strengthen our economy, support tourism, and better connect our communities to the rest of the region.

Thank you, Senator Capito, for continuing to champion Corridor H and fight for the federal investments needed to finish the job. Let’s keep the momentum going!

The West Virginia Department of Highways has announced that the ribbon cutting ceremony for the Kerens to Parsons section of Corridor H will take place on Monday, June 22, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. on the bridge in Kerens.

This is a day many of us have been looking forward to for a very long time. Generations of West Virginians have advocated for this highway, and we are finally seeing another major piece of this critical corridor become a reality.

Corridor H has already transformed communities across our region, and the completion of the Kerens to Parsons section represents another significant step toward connecting our state, creating economic opportunities, and improving travel for residents and visitors alike.

The public is invited to join us as we celebrate this historic milestone and recognize the many individuals, communities, and leaders who never gave up on making this day possible.
