PennDOT reopens I-279 ramp to Parkway East

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation announced that a ramp connecting Interstate 279 and Interstate 376 reopened Sunday.

The southbound Parkway North ramp from the Fort Duquesne Bridge to eastbound Parkway East was closed due to flooding. Steelers fans leaving Heinz Field were able to travel on the ramp following the game.

PennDOT said the ‘bathtub’ section of the Parkway East has also been reopened after being closed due to flooding.
