Wilkinsburg Road Closure & Parkway Update | Pittsburgh News
Description
Traffic chaos hits Wilkinsburg as Penn Avenue is shut down between Ross Ave and Montier St due to a busted water main—compounding delays from the Parkway East detour. Commuters are rerouted via Franklin/East Swissvale (north) or East Swissvale/Rebecca (south), with signs guiding drivers to Route 28 or Exit 77. This isn’t the first time—South Braddock Ave faced similar closures back in July. But there’s a silver lining: the Parkway East could reopen sooner than expected, thanks to the Commercial Street Bridge Replacement project being ahead of schedule, possibly as early as mid-next week. Stay alert, stay safe, and keep an eye on updates.
