I-68 (exit 10): 0 - 0 Pennsylvania State Line: 4.0 - 4.0
|
Creation: Appeared about 2011 as newly constructed Mon-Fayette Expressway and a replacement for a bit of CR 69/6. During planning stages this had been designated WV 109. This is the 3rd WV 43.
| Adjustments: None Improvements: Fully paved upon designation; fully controlled access freeway except at the interchange with I-68. Comment: WV 43 has one other interchange - CR 88/1 Bowers Ln which is signed as Exit 1 for TO CR 857. Although there are no toll booths until inside Pennsylvania, WV 43 is a toll road north of Exit 1 as there is no other place one can go but the PA 43 Tpk Route.
