PITTSBURGH CITY PAPER 04.30/05.07.2014
This year marks Port Authority’s 50th anniversary of connecting Pittsburghers to destinations throughout the region. As we celebrate the past, we also look forward to a new era of transportation in Allegheny County. An interesting milestone in Allegheny County Transit: Back in the 1840’s, horse-drawn omnibuses first moved passengers between Downtown and Lawrenceville.
