Interstate 81 corridor

The City of Martinsburg is served by three exits of highly-traveled Interstate 81, providing easy access for materials, customers, and employees. The corridor itself supports a mix of large-format retail with outparcels and commercial footprints suitable for traffic-focused businesses, while providing convenient citywide and regional automobile access beyond.

Traffic counts along the Interstate itself are in the range of 80K AADT, and state and regional transportation plans call for continued growth and accompanying infrastructure improvements to improve throughput, while local plans support context-sensitive planning to support an appropriate mixture of traffic flow and community-centered design.
