Liberty-Stanwix Closing to Detour Buses for a Year

Many Buses Detoured – Several Stops Relocated

Pittsburgh, PA, Oct. 13, 2009 – Numerous Port Authority of Allegheny County bus routes will be detoured in Downtown Pittsburgh for about a year starting Oct. 20, 2009 due to the closing of the intersection of Liberty Avenue and Stanwix Street.
 
The changes involve detours of more than 20 routes in Downtown and the relocation of several commonly-used bus stops. The detours will remain in place for about a year and then start to be lifted as lanes of travel in the Stanwix Street work zone reopen.
 
A detailed list of route and stop changes is available at Port Authority’s Web site (http://www.portauthority.org/PAAC/News/NewsRoom/PressReleases/tabid/278/newsid465/870/mid/465/Default.aspx). Port Authority also will distribute a pamphlet on buses and at schedule racks this week.
