When I was a teenager taking Driver’s Ed, my instructor told me that if you can drive in Pittsburgh, you can drive anywhere. I thought he was overexaggerating a smidge, but after spending time in New York City, Boston, Philadelphia, London and a slurry of other infamously difficult driving cities, I can say with full confidence he was not.

A road has reopened hours after officials said a tree brought down live wires, blocking cars from driving through the area.

As excitement for the 2026 NFL draft ramps up, the city has been preparing for the hundreds of thousands of people who will soon be in Pittsburgh. The biggest question that remained leading up to the draft was how workers, visitors and fans would get around.
