The map shown above shows a more detailed area that is currently being CONSTRUCTED for this section of the project.
To orient you, Cheat Lake, WV is to the left (South), Uniontown, PA is to the right (North) and Wheeling, WV would be in the upward direction (West).

For information on the construction status in West Virginia, please click here. The expressway will begin at the interchange of I-68 and WV-857 between Cheat Lake and Coopers Rock State Forest in Monongalia County, West Virginia. It will proceed northward, generally parallel to Route 857, and connect to PA-43 in Georges Township, Fayette County, west of the Fayette Business Park in Fairchance. Interchanges will provide access to I-68 and WV-857 in West Virginia as well as Gans Road, Ruble Mill Road and Big Six Road in Pennsylvania.
