West Virginia Route 105 (abbreviated WV Route 105 or WV 105) is an east–west state highway located within Weirton, West Virginia, United States. The western terminus of the route is at West Virginia Route 2 north of downtown Weirton. The eastern terminus is at U.S. Route 22 (Exit 5) in Weirton Heights, just 1/2 mile west of the Pennsylvania state line.
All but 200 yards (180 m) of WV 105 is located in Hancock County. The remaining 200 yards (180 m), comprising the U.S. 22 interchange and the north approach, is situated in Brooke County.
Most of WV 105, from the intersection of Pennsylvania Ave. and Colliers Way to the western terminus at Main St./WV 2, was originally U.S. 22 before the Robert C. Byrd Expressway was constructed.
Famous quotes containing the words west and/or route:
“One can write out of love or hate. Hate tells one a great deal about a person. Love makes one become the person. Love, contrary to legend, is not half as blind, at least for writing purposes, as hate. Love can see the evil and not cease to be love. Hate cannot see the good and remain hate. The writer, writing out of hatred, will, thus, paint a far more partial picture than if he had written out of love.”
—Jessamyn West (1902–1984)
“The route through childhood is shaped by many forces, and it differs for each of us. Our biological inheritance, the temperament with which we are born, the care we receive, our family relationships, the place where we grow up, the schools we attend, the culture in which we participate, and the historical period in which we live—all these affect the paths we take through childhood and condition the remainder of our lives.”
—Robert H. Wozniak (20th century)
