List of Unused Highways in Pennsylvania - Pennsylvania - Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh

  • A small ramp stub, just north of Civic Arena, exists in the Interstate 579 and Pennsylvania Route 380/Bigelow Boulevard interchange. It is part of a ramp from I-579 south to PA 380 east that was never completed. As the picture shows, there is extensive vegetation growth on the partially built ramp.
  • North of Pittsburgh International Airport, there are ramp stubs at the interchange between Interstate 376 and Business Loop I-376. These are for the missing direct connections between I-376 and Business Loop I-376.
  • The Birmingham Bridge has stubs on the southern approaches to the bridge. These were to connect to the unbuilt Oakland Crosstown Freeway which was canceled by Pennsylvania Department of Transportation in the mid-1970s. The bridge itself was built to hold the freeway.
  • The Industrial Highway was proposed and partially built in the 1960s and 70s. It was to have run from Pennsylvania Route 60 north to Pennsylvania Route 51 but was only completed between Roswell Drive and Beechnut Drive.
