Portions of the West Virginia Turnpike Exit 95 access ramps at Kanawha City will be closed beginning Tuesday, September 2, 2025, for a construction project.
In July, Kokosing Construction Company was awarded a contract for $2,961,631.40 to replace the two Exit 95 ramps that cross under the Charles Chuck Yeager Bridge. The new ramps will be lower, to create more clearance under the bridge.
Construction is expected to be complete in late November.
During construction, traffic will still be able to use the Exit 95 interchange, but the ramp to access WV 61 North will be closed. Traffic will be able to get onto the Turnpike from WV 61 South, but the northbound access ramp will be closed.
