    Summary:

    The City of Pittsburgh has provided permits to Pittsburgh Regional Transit and its contractor, Independence Excavating, to continue utility work, sidewalk reconstruction, and accessibility upgrade efforts on Fifth Avenue in the Uptown and Oakland neighborhoods of Pittsburgh.

    The ongoing construction work will require additional lane closures, shifting traffic, and adjustments to existing bus stops on Fifth Avenue between Kirkpatrick Street and Diamond Street.

    Beginning June 17, 2026, at approximately 7:00 AM the stop located at Fifth Avenue at Wyandotte Street (Stop ID 3149) will revert back to its original stop location of Fifth Avenue at Wyandotte nearside. The below stops are still either moved or discontinued through the end of June beginning of July. This detour notice will supersede detour #26-138 effective immediately and detour #26-138 will be rescinded.

    The work will require temporary adjustments to the following bus stops:

    *Fifth Avenue at Kirkpatrick Street (Farside) (Stop ID 18164) will shift to the nearside of the intersection.

    *Fifth Avenue opposite Seneca Street (Stop ID 3148) will be closed.
