West Virginia Route 618

West Virginia Route 618 is an eastwest state highway located almost entirely in Parkersburg, West Virginia. The route follows the former path of U.S. Route 50 through downtown Parkersburg. It was created when US 50 was realigned onto a bypass of Parkersburg constructed as part of an upgrade of Corridor D. The designation is meant as a continuation of Ohio's State Route 618, though that route turns North at the Parkersburg-Belpre Bridge before it would actually meet West Virginia Route 618.

gollark: But if you can't really understand the underlying evidence yourself, which is *really hard*, and you don't trust the "establishment" for whatever reason, you can't really do much else.
gollark: Okay.
gollark: I don't think anywhere near most people are actually equipped to judge how good evidence for something is in this kind of domain.
gollark: Are you sure?
