In accordance with WVDOH Specification Section 109.10, WVDOH has released the Fuel, Asphalt, and Cement price adjustment indices effective April 1, 2026, as shown below.

April brings a close to Asphalt’s slow fall over the past 3.5 years since its previous high of $761 during August 2022 in the midst of the Russia-Ukraine conflict.  Now with the initiation of the US/Israel campaign against Iran, and the Strait of Hormuz effectively closed, this month’s Asphalt index saw a roughly 17.5% increase, set at $618, with further increases likely to come.  Like Asphalt, this month’s Fuel index saw dramatic increases of roughly 51%.  Conversely, Cement remained relatively even with only a ~1% increase.
