HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION 93
(By Delegate Howell)
[Introduced March 21, 2017]
Urging the Division of Highways to extend WV Route 93 from its current terminus at US Route 50 near Claysville, West Virginia through the junction of WV Route 927 and US Route 50 to create a new terminus at the junction of WV Route 972 and US Route 220, and to erect signs reflecting this change.
Whereas, As currently constructed, individuals driving northbound on WV Route 93 must make three separate road changes in quick succession after WV Route 93 reaches its terminus point to reach Keyser, West Virginia, including merging onto US Route 50, WV Route 972 and US Route 220; and
Whereas, These quick, successive road changes cause confusion for drivers, needlessly extending driving time and increasing the risk of accidents; and
Whereas, By extending WV Route 93 from its current terminus at US Route 50, and erecting signage along sections of US Route 50 and the entirety of WV Route 927 to reflect this extension, visitors to Keyser, West Virginia and the surrounding area will be able to reach their destination more expeditiously and safely; therefore, be it
Resolved by the Legislature of West Virginia:
Urging the Division of Highways to extend WV Route 93 from its current terminus at US Route 50 near Claysville, West Virginia through the junction of WV Route 927 and US Route 50 to create a new terminus at the junction of WV Route 972 and US Route 220, and to erect signs reflecting this change; and, be it
Further Resolved, That the Division of Highways provide updated route number information to GPS navigation services to reflect this change.
