West Virginia Route 43 is a state highway currently under construction in Monongalia County, West Virginia. Upon completion, WV 43 will run approximately 4 miles from the Pennsylvania-West Virginia state line to Interstate 68 near Cheat Lake in Monongalia County. This is the final leg of the southern portion of the Mon/Fayette Expressway, which will connect Morgantown to the Pennsylvania cities of Uniontown, Brownsville, California, and Pittsburgh with a limited-access highway. Currently, WV 43 is completed except for a bridge over Darnell Hollow and a small portion of highway leading up to and including the interchange with I-68 in Cheat Lake.[citation needed]
North of the Pennsylvania border, WV 43 will continue northward as Pennsylvania Route 43 (PA Turnpike 43). Unlike PA 43 to the north, WV 43 will not be a toll road.[citation needed]
A completion date for WV 43 has been tentatively set for 2011.[citation needed] At that point, the Mon/Fayette Expressway will run uninterrupted from I-68 in West Virginia to Pennsylvania Route 51 near the Century III Mall near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
