The West Virginia State Highway System is an integrated system of numbered roads in the U.S. state of West Virginia. These highways were coordinated by the West Virginia Department of Transportation, Division of Highways.
West Virginia state highways have a square-shaped highway shield.[1]
West Virginia has a system of secondary state highways that are functionally similar to county roads in most other states. Secondary road designations are only unique within each county. There are two types of secondary roads:
In addition, Home Access Road Program roads have a house-shaped pentagonal shield. They are assigned to dead-end shared driveways. The program began in 1998.
Delta roads had a triangular highway shield. They were assigned to private roads maintained by the state. The system came about in the 1960s, and was phased out in the 1990s, and very few delta markers remain.
