Transportation[edit]

Historic Lewisburg is centered at the crossroads of U.S. Route 60, historically called The Midland Trail, and U.S. Route 219. Interstate 64's intersection with U.S. Route 219 near the northern border of the town has drawn most modern development into that area.

Greenbrier Valley Airport supports a vibrant general aviation community, and also has direct daily flights on Contour Airlines to Charlotte, NC.
