Bill Summary

The purpose of this bill is to cease tolls on the West Virginia Turnpike upon completion of all bond payments.

AI Summary

This bill mandates that the West Virginia Parkways Authority must stop collecting tolls on the West Virginia Turnpike once all outstanding bonds, which are essentially loans taken out to fund the turnpike's construction and maintenance, and their associated interest have been fully paid off or a sufficient amount has been set aside to cover these payments. Specifically, within 90 days of the final bond payment, the authority is required to cease all toll collections, and the physical toll collection facilities are to be removed, with the turnpike then to be maintained by the state Division of Highways without charging tolls, unless otherwise specified in this section.
