Road Widening Funded
New Martinsville Street Commissioner Gary Willey, left, thanks Stone Energy Appalachia District Landman Carl Bailes for presenting the city with a check for $57,800 during Monday evening’s council meeting. The donation will fully fund a project to widen the eastern portion of North Street, from Pine Street to the city limits where it becomes Doolin Run Road. The project will not only widen the road, but essentially eliminate a rather dangerous offset at the base of the hill. (Photo by Amy Witschey)
