West Virginia Route 9 is a major east-west state highway located in the eastern extents of West Virginia's Eastern Panhandle. The western terminus of the route is at the Maryland state line north of Paw Paw, where WV 9 becomes Maryland Route 51 upon crossing the Potomac River. The eastern terminus is at the Virginia state line near Keys Gap and Mannings, where WV 9 continues onward as State Route 9.

With no east-west US Highway in the region, WV 9 acts as the major east-west transportation artery between Morgan, Berkeley, and Jefferson counties. WV 9 briefly enters Hampshire County where it intersects with West Virginia Route 29 near Pin Oak.
