  • A Pittsburgh Public Works crew removes the debris from a landslide from behind the barrier along the McArdle Roadway early Thursday morning. The slide, in the same location as a slide two weeks ago, did not reach the roadway but filled the gap behind the barrier. The road was closed for the debris removal.

McArdle Roadway reopened this morning from the Liberty Bridge to Grandview Avenue after several hours of closure caused by a landslide.

In other traffic news, Fort Pitt Boulevard is closed from Smithfield Street to Stanwix Street for continuing pavement repairs in the wake of last week's water main break. The Monongahela Wharf was accessible via Wood Street only for the morning rush but Wood Street access was shut off at midmorning for the remainder of today for additional paving.
