Relating generally to “Flagger Ahead” signs and flaggers on public roads in the State of West Virginia.
This bill requires contractors and roadwork crews to remove "Flagger Ahead" signs from public roadways within 30 minutes after flaggers finish their work. It applies to all public roads in West Virginia and imposes escalating fines for violations: $50 for a first offense (covering court costs), $200 for a second, and $500 plus permit revocation for a third offense. The law takes effect on July 1, 2025, aiming to ensure signs are removed promptly once work concludes.
