Beckley and Bluestone travel plazas to close until construction is completed

GHENT, WV (WVNS) — Having been under construction for over a year now, both the Beckley and Bluestone travel plazas are in the home stretch.

The Bluestone travel plaza will close fully starting at 7:00 A.M. on Monday, July 8th.

The fuel stations at the Bluestone plaza are already offline, but truck parking will be closed until the project is completed.

The Beckley travel plaza will follow on Thursday, August 1st. 

The diesel fueling stations and truck parking will both be closed from that day on until the new building is finished.

Jeff Miller, executive director of the Parkways Authority knows that this will have an impact on commercial truck drivers and travelers through the area, but reassures that these facilities will be world-class once they’re complete.

Each travel plaza will offer expanded food services, 24/7 Mountain Market convenience stores, electric vehicle charging stations, and much more.
