Traffic on the West Virginia Turnpike was down about 1.5
percent during Thanksgiving week compared with a year earlier.
West Virginia Parkways Authority general manager Greg Barr
says there were about 724,000 toll-booth transactions during a six-day period
ending Sunday along the 88-mile highway between Charleston
and Princeton. That's down about 11,000 from the
November 2011 period.
The record of 772,000 transactions was set in 2009.
For the entire year, Barr told the Charleston Daily Mail that
toll-booth transactions are up 1.7 percent compared with 2011.
