Another Moon Township road closes due to landslide

MOON TOWNSHIP, Pa. — Part of an Allegheny County road is closed because of a landslide.

The Moon Township Police Department says Purdy Road between McGovern Boulevard and Laurel Ridge Drive is closed because of a landslide that brought down trees and wires.

There’s no word on when the road could reopen.

This is the second landslide in Moon Township in January. On Jan 12., a hillside behind six homes started crumbling toward Beaver Grade Road by Montour Run Road.
