POINT PLEASANT — Despite public outcry, tolls are back on the table for the finance of U.S. 35.
On Tuesday, the West Virginia Supreme Court justices ruled that the West Virginia Parkways Authority can now proceed with their public hearings for the toll project. The court appealed the Mason County Commission’s rescinded vote, which pulled their support of the project.
Charles Lanham, member of the local U.S. 35 Advisory Council, said that he was pleased with the court’s decision."
