Please contact us at (304) 558-3931, or (800) 982-8722 (voice to TTD), or (800) 982-8771 (TDD to voice). The Culloden Interchange Project began in the late 1960s with interchange ramp design and right-of-way acquisition but did not proceed. The current focus on the interchange and associated connector to US 60 resulted from growing concerns regarding increased traffic and congestion on Interstate 64 between Hurricane and Milton, West Virginia. The project represents an additional outlet for round-trip daily traffic moving back and forth from the community of Hurricane to Charleston. In 2015, the West Virginia Division of Highways (WVDOH) developed a thorough analysis of construction impacts associated with this interchange, including recommendations for local road improvements and revised traffic patterns that would ease local consequences of interchange construction. WVDOH welcomes your input on potential environmental concerns, including, among others issues, impacts to natural and cultural resources as well as social and economic impacts.

The Culloden Interchange Project began in the late 1960s with interchange ramp design and right-of-way acquisition but did not proceed. The current focus on the

interchange and associated connector to US 60 resulted from growing concerns regarding increased traffic and congestion on Interstate 64 between Hurricane and Milton, West Virginia. The project represents an additional outlet for round-trip daily traffic moving back and forth from the community of Hurricane to Charleston. In 2015, the West Virginia Division of Highways (WVDOH) developed a thorough analysis of construction impacts associated with this interchange, including recommendations for local road improvements and revised traffic patterns that would ease local consequences of interchange construction. WVDOH welcomes your input on potential environmental concerns, including, among others issues, impacts to natural and cultural resources as well as social and economic impacts.
