Updated: Next Phase of Warrington Avenue Work Begins Monday, August 5
On Monday, August 5, contractors will begin the next phase of roadway
rehabilitation on Warrington Avenue between Beltzhoover and Arlington avenues,
shifting work from the inbound side of the street to the outbound
side.
Auto traffic detours for this phase of work will remain the same. Traffic traveling toward Downtown Pittsburgh will use Warrington Avenue. Traffic traveling in the opposite direction will be detoured using Industry Street.
Additionally, roadway construction will impact the intersection of Warrington Avenue and Haberman Avenue around-the-clock from 6 a.m. Monday until the evening of Friday, August 9. During this time, Warrington Avenue will be reduced to one lane at this intersection, with flaggers controlling traffic.
Port Authority’s bus detours will change with this new phase of work. A long-term detour for the 43 Bailey, 44 Knoxville, 48 Arlington and 54 North Side-Oakland-South Side routes will go into effect starting Monday at 8 a.m. and continue around-the-clock until the afternoon of Friday, September 13. View information on this detour.
In addition to the long-term bus detour, an additional detour will be in place from 6 a.m. Monday to late afternoon Friday, August 9 due to the work at the intersection of Warrington Avenue and Haberman Avenue. View information on this detour.
This phase of work is estimated to take approximately six weeks to complete. Following this phase, there will be some final rail repairs. The entire project is expected to end in mid-September.
Warrington Avenue is partially owned by Port Authority as it contains embedded light rail tracks formerly used by the Allentown line.
For more information, contact Port Authority Customer Service at 412-442-2000 (TTY 412-231-7007).

Bus Detours for West Carson Work Begin Friday
Numerous Port Authority bus routes will be impacted by the outbound West Carson Street closure that begins the evening of Friday, August 2.
Many of these routes will detour, but some will remain on regular route. All routes in this corridor will be subject to delays due to detours and/or altered traffic patterns.
Bus routes 21 Coraopolis, 22 McCoy, 24 West Park, 28X Airport Flyer and G2 West Busway-All Stops will have a temporary detour from 9 p.m. August 2 until the night’s end of service during initial set-up for the closure. Then, on the morning of Saturday, August 3, the long-term detours or delay advisories listed below go into effect.
These conditions will be in effect for approximately two years while PennDOT completes a major reconstruction of the corridor.
20 Kennedy, 21 Coraopolis, 22 McCoy, 24 West Park
These routes will not serve Downtown Pittsburgh during the long-term detour that begins August 3. Instead, they will use the McKees Rocks Bridge and Route 65 to and from Allegheny T Station on the North Shore. Riders may make the free transfer between bus and light rail to complete their trip to/from Downtown. View notice for detour for night of Friday, August 2 only. View long-term detour notice.
26 Chartiers, 27 Fairywood, 29 Robinson and 31 Bridgeville
These routes will not be detoured. However, inbound delays are possible, particularly during the a.m. peak, and significant delays are likely to occur outbound, especially during the early weeks of the closure when new traffic patterns are becoming established.
28X Airport Flyer and G2 West Busway-All Stops
These routes will detour outbound using the West End Circle, Steuben Street and Chartiers Avenue to Chartiers Ramp and the West Busway. All busway stations will be served during the detour. They will remain on regular route inbound except in cases of blocked traffic on West Carson, when they may detour via the West End (all normal stops will be served when this detour is used). Riders should expect delays in both directions. View notice for detour for night of Friday, August 2 only. View long-term detour notice.
G3 Moon Flyer and G31 Bridgeville Flyer
These routes will be detoured outbound using the Fort Pitt Tunnel and Parkway West, bypassing the West Busway. They will remain on regular route inbound except in cases of blocked traffic on West Carson, when they may detour via the West End (all normal stops will be served when this detour is used).

Warrington Avenue Rehab Resumes Monday, March 18
Port Authority and the City of Pittsburgh will resume rehab work on Warrington Avenue on Monday, March 18 beginning at 7 a.m. This work will impact local auto traffic, bus routes, parking and sidewalks, and is expected to be completed August 30, 2013.
Detours to local auto traffic will be in place around-the-clock and signs will be posted to guide traffic. Local bus routes will also be detoured during this project.
Bus detour notices will be posted at www.portauthority.org under "Detours" once available.
Work will occur on one side of the street at a time and in sections, with detours shifting as the area of impact changes. The work that starts Monday will affect the section of Warrington between Estella and Beltzhoover avenues. Then in approximately mid-June, work will shift to the area between Beltzhoover and Arlington avenues.
Rehab work on Warrington Avenue began in the fall when Port Authority contractors improved the stretch of road between Haberman and Estella avenues. Warrington Avenue is partially owned by Port Authority as it contains embedded light rail tracks formerly used by the defunct Allentown line.
For more information, visit www.portauthority.org or contact Customer Service at 412-442-2000 (TTY 412-231-7007).
