Pittsburgh Regional Transit retiring Fifth Avenue bus lane in Oakland
Some big changes are coming to Oakland for Pittsburgh Regional Transit riders, all of which include closures, construction, and the future of safety.
Riders who typically catch the bus on Fifth Avenue in Oakland should start preparing because starting Sunday, Pittsburgh Regional Transit says the bus lane on Fifth Avenue will be permanently retired.
It’s a part of their University Line project, designed to create a more reliable connection between Downtown, Uptown, and Oakland.
But without the Fifth Avenue bus lane, traffic is shifting.
“All of our bus operational movements are going to be moving over here to Forbes Avenue,” said Amy Silbermann, chief development officer with Pittsburgh Regional Transit.
For riders, this means big changes.
Seventeen outbound bus stops along Fifth Avenue will be eliminated, 9 bus routes will be rerouted, and all outbound buses will travel on Forbes with general traffic.
“Forbes Avenue is going to be more congested. We will have more buses than today,” Silbermann noted.
While the closure is permanent, the construction and renovation will be temporary, and part of a much bigger plan.
“Ultimately, that lane is going to turn into a two-way protected bicycle facility. All buses will remain on Forbes Avenue outbound for as long as we know,” Silbermann said.
This change will now leave Forbes as the main bus corridor.
“Ultimately, one lane on Forbes Avenue is going to become a bus-only lane. However, that’s not happening until later next year.”
In the meantime, PRT says it’s working with the city and Port Authority police to keep traffic moving. The entire project is expected to be completed by 2027.
“This is not about making buses rapid. This is about making buses move more reliably and continuously throughout the corridor,” Silbermann said. “Today, they get very bunched up because of the conditions. Once they get bunched up, they end up with big gaps in service, where you may wait a really long time and then get on a really overcrowded bus.”
PRT says they will have staff at select bus stops to help navigate through this transition.
