Not sure which way I will go coming from the South Hills.

yeah i just heard that today

I'd hop on I 79...go up to about Erie, and then catch 90 west going toward Cleveland, shoot down 71 to Columbus, hit 70 and go to the Delmont exit, then go up 76. It should only take you about 9 hours or so that way. Or I guess you could go back roads if you wanted to go that way.

 

[vr697getta]

well probably the REAL way you should go ray would be how i get to your house because i am 15 minutes from monroeville. go threw century 3 on lebanon church road into mckeesport up 48 into monroeville

ALL roads lead to Rome...or so they say. Of course, we're not trying to get to Rome, so maybe that's a bad colloquialism to bring up.

That might be faster!

The last time they closed it down when there was a meeting
it took me 2.5 hours!!

Ok, they are creating this mess on the week end of Pitt's homecoming and one of the biggest Steelers games of the season, not to mention the Pens games.

I am going to the Pitt game and the Steelers game this week end, looks like I'll be sitting in a lot of traffic.:mad2:

I was in Pittsburgh last night and live 45 minutes east of it. So I come home Parkway East and at 10pm they closed the outbound part right at the first monroeville exit. So other than sitting in traffic it won't affect your route.

We just got home from the Pitt game and there were no closures.:celeb2:
