Key Route Improvements

  • Would restore direct connection to UPMC Mercy from the Hill District.
  • Would create new connection between the Hill District and Bloomfield / Lawrenceville.
  • Would retain existing connections on the 93 between Lawrenceville, Bloomfield and Oakland.

Route Highlights

  • Two routes from the Hill District (D82 and D83) would still directly connect to Downtown. Riders in the Hill District have expressed a desire for connections to other neighborhoods, which are reflected in the routing of the O81 and N84.
  • The O81 would retain the Oakland-Bloomfield- Lawrenceville connection currently offered on existing route 93.
  • Riders would be able to connect to PRTX service in Oakland.
