Ramp from Crosstown Boulevard to Parkway East closed due to troublesome pothole
PITTSBURGH, Pa. (KDKA) -- The ramp that takes drivers from Crosstown Boulevard to the Parkway East is closed due to a troublesome pothole that has opened up along the roadway.
During the morning commute on Monday, police had blocked off access to the ramp, forcing all drivers to exit towards the Liberty Bridge with no option of exiting to the Parkway East ramp headed towards Monroeville.
A spokesperson from PennDOT tells KDKA that the pothole has 'kept opening up' recently. PennDOT crews are going to be addressing the problem temporarily with a permanent repair in future plans.
It's unclear when the ramp will be reopened to drivers or if it will be in time for the evening commute.
