Summary

The purpose of this bill is to maintain the status quo in the event bond indebtedness is eliminated as the result of being paid off in order to continue collecting revenue for parkways roads and infrastructure projects. Current law would require, in the event bond indebtedness was satisfied, that tolls be eliminated and Parkway Authority roads and infrastructure projects if in good condition be transferred to the Division of Highways. This bill also provides that after all bonds are paid, all toll revenues exceeding $55 million annually shall be placed into a special revenue account and those funds used for road projects in counties where the West Virginia Turnpike is located.
