RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — The Commonwealth Transportation Board
is scheduled to take up a proposed realignment of the Coalfields
Expressway.
Opponents of the changes are expected to speak out at
Wednesday's meeting in Richmond. They call it a "strip mining" highway
project and contend the proposed realignments cater to the wishes of
coal companies that are partnering with the state.
Alpha Natural
Resources and Rapoca Energy are partnering with Virginia to complete the
four-lane divided highway though Virginia's coal country and into West
Virginia .
Only a two-mile section in Buchanan County
has been completed. The rough grade section was completed in the summer
of 2011.
If the board approves the new route, the project moves on to the Federal Highway Administration for review.
