Huntington’s well-engineered highway network delivers single-day truck access to more than 162 million consumers across the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, and Ontario. Three interstate-grade highways provide fast local connections to key routes across the region. I-64 through the heart of Huntington provides direct routes to St. Louis, Louisville, Lexington, and Virginia’s tidewater ports, along with quick trips to Interstates 44, 55, 57, 65, 69, 70, 71, 75, 77, 81, 95, 264, and 664. U.S. Routes 60 and 52 provides additional connections to a long list of interstates and Canadian thoroughfares.

Inbound and outbound rail shipments move quickly to and from Huntington, with mainline service from both CSX and Norfolk Southern (which offers guaranteed double-stack service to ports and connections in Virginia and Chicago). There’s passenger rail, too, as Amtrak’s New York-to-Chicago Cardinal stops here.

Huntington’s aviation assets are where the region really shines. Tri-State Airport (KHTS) is West Virginia’s only FedEx 757 hub, thanks to its 7,017-foot (2,139 m) runway. The full-service Jet Center offers all-weather general aviation support.  Commercial passenger service offers nonstop connections to Orlando, Tampa/St. Pete, Fort Myers, Myrtle Beach, as well as three daily flights to Charlotte International Airport.

Huntington’s location on the Ohio River includes one of America’s largest inland ports, spanning 199 miles across three navigable rivers. The Port of Huntington Tri-State handles more than 30 million tons of fossil fuels, raw materials, and chemicals, with facilities for liquid, dry, and break-bulk loads. Virginia’s two tidewater ports — the Norfolk International terminals and the Virginia International gateway — are just 460 miles down I-64 with direct access on CSX and NS rails to speed shipments.
