Pittsburgh will close the outbound lanes of Grant Street for two months starting Monday, May 6, 2019, to replace bricks and make other repairs.

Pittsburgh on Monday will close a portion of Grant Street in Downtown for two months while crews repair the bumpy, brick roadway.

The Port Authority of Allegheny County announced Friday that it would detour 15 bus routes while work is ongoing.

Pittsburgh is closing Grant heading toward the Greyhound Station between Seventh and Liberty avenues until July 3, according to the Mayor’s Office. Two-way traffic will be maintained on Grant’s other lanes in that block.

The project is the first phase of a multiyear effort to repair the street running through the heart of Downtown from the parkway to Liberty Avenue.

The Port Authority will post signs at all bus stops in the impacted area to advise riders of the changes and direct them to the nearest stop.
