Changes to the NHS classification of a route are performed in conjunction with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). Where applicable, proposed changes are also coordinated through municipalities and/or Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs). As of 2025, approved changes to the NHS network are communicated to all WVDOT employees through an agency-wide memorandum.
