Filming of the next Batman movie, The Dark Knight Rises, will impact most Port Authority routes at some point during the month of August. Primary areas of impact will be Downtown Pittsburgh and Oakland, although other neighborhoods may also be affected.
Detours will take place throughout the month due to street closures. Additionally, delays are highly likely throughout August and throughout the city due to traffic control measures.
Due to the nature of filming, detours are subject to change without notice.
Filming-related detours are expected to end by Monday, August 22.
Listed below are currently available detours; more detours will be added as they become available or if detours change. Click through to view specific details on a detour, including hours of impact and temporary stop changes.
