CHARLESTON, W.Va. - Gov. Joe Manchin, along with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the West Virginia Division of Highways, will award more than $1.5 million for 15 projects across the state during a 3 p.m. ceremony on Tuesday, June 8, at the Culture Center. Funds are part of the 2010 Transportation Enhancement grant program.
The West Virginia Transportation Enhancement grant program is funded by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration. This federal program provides annual funding (through the SAFETEA-LU legislation) to West Virginia communities for non-traditional projects, such as improving safety for pedestrians and bicyclists, through the construction of sidewalks and trails, preservation of view sheds for highways, protection of historic resources, and further tourism development.
