WV 61

North End: Charleston
South End: Piney View



(H.B. Elkins)
The Northern Terminus of WV 61 is at US 60 at the Charleston/South Charleston Line.  There is not an 'END' sign present at this terminus.  To continue straight puts you in a turn lane to enter the bridge to cross the Kanawha River.  For US 60 west, you make a right turn and go underneath the bridge's approach.

Dan Moraseski and Swawn DeCesari took this photo before they crossed the Kanawha River into Charleston.

I was able to get a photo of the Southern Terminus of WV 61 at WV 41 in Piney View.  Historically, WV 41 was a former alignment of US 19 and WV 61 was US 21.  This would be where US 19 would join US 21 south into Beckley.  Now it serves as the Southern Terminus of WV 61 as 41 continues into Beckley.
