To support the route changes proposed by the NEXTransit Downtown Plan, temporary bus boarding platforms have been installed next to the sidewalk within the right-of-way.
These temporary platforms provide ease of access for bus boarding and alighting and add to sidewalk space at bus stops where high numbers of riders are expected. Downtown has had a similar temporary bus boarding platform on Liberty Avenue near Smithfield Street. Learn more about the locations of these platforms and what to expect when using them.
Platform Locations
The following locations have temporary bus boarding platforms as shown on the map:
- Forbes Avenue at Grant Street
- Wood Street at Sixth Avenue
- Penn Avenue and Stanwix Street
- Fort Duquesne Boulevard at Sixth Street
