The Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission is hosting a public meeting for Indiana County residents to give their opinions on local transportation and infrastructure projects, on Wednesday from 3 to 5 p.m. at PA CareerLink, 300 Indian Springs Road, White Township.

What if there was a way to prevent wrong-way crashes?

The Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission says there were 15 wrong-way crashes just along Route 28 in the last five years.

New technology could detect drivers going the wrong way, and alert the other drivers on the road.

Pittsburgh is building a nice nest egg for a proposed bicycle-pedestrian project in part of East Liberty, but the timing and complete cost of the work aren’t decided yet.

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation announced $49.5 million in grants last week under the Transportation Alternatives Set-Aside program, including $1.07 million for the bicycle project. Last month, the city received a $1.5 million grant from the Southwestern Pennsylvania Commission for the same project.

The administration of Gov. Josh Shapiro says it is committed to enhancing and expanding the state’s long-range transportation infrastructure, recognizing its pivotal role in Pennsylvanians’ daily lives.

After more than two years of planning, Pittsburgh Regional Transit has settled on the types of improvements it needs to provide more reliable service along Route 837 between Homestead and McKeesport.

But it only has money for a small portion of the work and will have to work with other agencies and municipalities for the rest.

When you survey a group of 30 young professionals about what it is that they do and the aspects that make each individual unique, there are bound to be some trends that appear.

But what is interesting about the trends that emerged among this year’s group of 30 Under 30 honorees is that they are not necessarily what you’d expect them to be.

The Pennsylvania Broadband Development Authority announced on Thursday, April 18 that Armstrong Telecommunications has received about $12.47 million in Broadband Infrastructure Program grants for two projects to expand broadband access in the northern part of Butler County.

The grant is part of $204 million the authority awarded to telecommunications providers for 53 broadband improvement projects in 42 counties, which would improve internet access for over 100,000 Pennsylvanians.

PennDOT District 12 officials highlighted nine of the 103 projects anticipated to be in construction status this year in Fayette, Greene, Washington, and Westmoreland counties, representing an investment of $528 million.

Gov. Josh Shapiro’s commitment to delivering safe highways and bridges across the Commonwealth remains a top priority.
