All service on the Martin Luther King Jr. East Busway is detouring due to an active landslide. While no debris has reached the busway, we have temporarily closed the affected section out of an abundance of caution to ensure the safety of riders and employees. Buses are currently entering and exiting the busway at 26th Street, approximately one mile from the regular downtown access point at the intersection of Grant Street and Liberty Avenue. PRT engineers have been deployed to the scene to assess the situation. We will continue to monitor conditions closely and will provide updates as more information becomes available. This landslide is in a different location from the one that impacted a portion of the busway in October 2024.

REMINDER: Rail service between First Avenue and Gateway stations will be suspended at 8 p.m. until start of service on Monday for electrical maintenance work. Steel Plaza and Wood Street stations will be closed, and bus shuttles will be running. rideprt.org/cbdclosure

PRT Deploying Snow Plows, Dump Trucks in Effort to Return to Regular Transit Service FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Pittsburgh Regional Transit will deploy a portion of its fleet of snow plows and dump trucks to clear snow from problem areas across the system and help restore service to normal following Sunday’s near-record snowfall. Beginning Wednesday evening, PRT will deploy pickup trucks equipped with snow plows, along with dump trucks, to locations where buses continue to experience difficulty navigating snow-packed streets and accessing stops. Targeted areas include parts of Bon Air, Brookline, the Hill District, the North Side, Greenfield, Homewood, Lincoln Park, Polish Hill, and Fineview. “While overall conditions are improving, some parts of the system are still impacted,” said Don Rivetti, PRT’s chief maintenance officer. “This approach allows us to focus on specific locations that continue to affect bus operations and access to stops, and to do our part as a good neighbor in the communities we serve.” PRT has already cleared snow from its busways and is continuing work to ensure all stations and park-and-ride lots are accessible and safe for riders. The remainder of PRT’s snow-clearing fleet will be deployed throughout the system, with particular focus on locations where the agency has received complaints about access to and from heavily used bus stops. Crews will prioritize areas where snow buildup continues to impact boarding, accessibility, and overall service reliability. “When challenges linger after a storm, it’s important that we work together to support residents,” said Allegheny County Executive Sara Innamorato. “PRT’s efforts are helping improve access for riders and neighborhoods across the county.” On Thursday — and Friday, if needed — PRT crews will concentrate on the city's Central Business District, clearing bus stops and ensuring safe, accessible connections to transit in the region’s busiest corridors as weekday travel demand increases. PRT continues to coordinate with municipal partners and monitor conditions across the service area, and thanks riders for their patience as crews work to restore normal operations and improve access systemwide.

ALL BUS AND RAIL SERVICE IS SUSPENDED Due to deteriorating conditions, Pittsburgh Regional Transit has suspended all bus and rail service effective immediately. Normal transit operations are expected to resume Monday morning. PRT’s Downtown Service Center will be closed on Monday. However, riders may continue to reach Customer Service representatives by phone and online. ACCESS paratransit will make every effort to operate on Monday, however, riders with scheduled trips and medical providers have been advised to expect delays, particularly in the morning.

The Mt. Washington Transit Tunnel is expected to reopen on Thursday, December 25, restoring normal rail and bus service between the South Hills and Downtown Pittsburgh. The tunnel has been closed since February while crews replaced track inside the tunnel and completed other critical infrastructure upgrades. With construction now complete, PRT has successfully tested the tracks and has begun conducting employee training in preparation for reopening. Once regular operations resume, bus and rail service will return to using the tunnel and detoured rail service through Allentown will end. The “Subway Local” rail shuttle will be discontinued, and rail service will return to Station Square. Regular fare collection will resume at Station Square, which had been included in the free fare zone, during construction. For updates or questions, riders are encouraged to call PRT Customer Service at 412-442-2000, X (formerly Twitter) @PghtTransitCare or chat with a Customer Service representative at rideprt.org.

The repair has been made and the tracks via Allentown have reopened

All rail vehicles are running 15-20 minutes behind schedule due to an automobile that was stuck on the rail on Arlington Avenue about a half hour ago.
