Pittsburgh Department of Public Works preparing for another blast of winter weather Friday morning
Public works crews in the City of Pittsburgh are preparing for another round of snow that’s expected to impact tomorrows morning commute.
Some people hope it won’t be a repeat of how the city handled last week’s snowfall.
With more snow on the way, some people in the City of Pittsburgh are concerned and still frustrated over last week’s wintry mess.
Several cars got stuck on Negley Avenue in Squirrel Hill the morning of Dec. 21.
Some people say a lot of roads were unsalted across the city.
“It’s Pittsburgh, they are supposed to be ready for stuff like this you know, should be out the day before night before salting everything,” DoorDash driver Robert Dennis said.
Dennis uses Negley Avenue daily.
“It’s the main drag. I go down it everyday. I don’t see why they wouldn’t come out and salt it. That’s crazy,” Dennis said.
The City of Pittsburgh said that day public works was responding to unexpected heavy snowfall.
A Ring camera video showed a car sliding on ice, nearly hitting an SUV and slamming straight into the side of a house on Parkwood Road in Mount Oliver that same day.
By that afternoon, the city deployed 40 plow trucks.
“I have friends who live on the slopes and Mount Oliver area that did have a big problem couple weeks ago. I’m glad they are gonna do a better job this time,” Lucy Leitner said.
Today, Allegheny County’s Department of Public Works said when the snow starts early Friday morning, they will have 30 salt trucks with plows deployed.
The city said they are also prepared and will have 60 trucks out overnight to treat the roads.
The city says the bulk of the snow is expected to hit during rush hour tomorrow morning so they will have crews out around the clock to make sure the roads are safe.

Two parents are facing charges after police say more than 60 teenagers were drinking at a large party in their Plum Borough home.
According to court paperwork, Ian and Corrine Dryburgh have been charged with endangering the welfare of children, corruption of minors, and furnishing liquor to minors stemming from the incident that happened at a home in Plum Borough late last month.
Police said that officers went to the home after receiving a tip about a large party involving high school aged children.
When officers arrived at the home, they found numerous teenagers, empty beer cans and empty seltzer cans, and multiple bottles of vodka.
The parents told police that a birthday party for their 17-year-old daughter got out of hand and that some kids has been kicked out, but more came and they didn’t know what to do.
According to the criminal complaint, officers said they had been called to the home two previous times for similar reasons.
Police said a total of 66 underage kids were at the home.
Court records show that both parents have been cited via summons and preliminary hearings are scheduled for mid-April.
PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Pirates have had a strong showing so far in the Grapefruit League, but suffered a surprising defeat.
The Pirates lost 3-2 to the St. Louis Cardinals at LECOM Park in Bradenton, Fla., taking just their third defeat in Spring Training so far, dropping to 9-3 in the Grapefruit League.
Pittsburgh saw their five-game winning streak come to an end, but they are still level with the New York Yankees at the top of the Grapefruit League standings.
This game also came after the first off day for the Pirates on March 4 and a 7-1 win over Team Colombia in an exhibition at LECOM Park on March 3.
How the Pirates Fell to the Cardinals
Pirates right-handed pitcher Mitch Keller made his third start in the Grapefruit League and threw three scoreless innings, before giving up a solo home run to Cardinals third baseman Nolan Gorman on a slider down in the zone, putting the road team up 1-0 in the top of the fourth inning.
That represented the first run that Keller gave up all Spring Training and Pirates left-handed relief pitcher Derek Diamond came in for him after he gave up a single to Cardinals right fielder Jordan Walker.
Keller has just a 1.23 ERA over 7.1 innings for the Pirates in the Grapefruit League, a good start for the veteran on the starting rotation.
St. Louis loaded the bases against Pirates left-handed relief pitcher Evan Sisk in the top of the fifth inning with three walks, but Sisk struckout top prospect in shortstop JJ Wetherholt and forced Gorman into a double play to keep it a one-run game.
Pirates right-handed relief pitcher Chris Devenski gave up a run in the top of the sixth inning, as he walked second baseman Ramón Urías, who stole second base, then gave up a single to catcher Pedro Pagés, doubling the Cardinals’ lead at 2-0.
The Pirates tied the game up at 2-2 in the bottom of the sixth inning, as shortstop Alika Williams hit a two-run home run off of Cardinals left-handed pitcher Quinn Mathews.
Pirates right-handed relief pitcher Cam Sanders gave up the go-ahead run in the top of the eighth inning, hitting leadoff batter Joshua Baez with a pitch and then giving up a single to pinch-hitter Jimmy Crooks to make it 3-2.
Right fielder Ryan O’Hearn had a strong showing for the Pirates in the loss to the Cardinals with two hits in two at-bats. He is now slashing .462/.563/.769 for an OPS of 1.332 in six Grapefruit League games.
Outfielder Jhostynxon Garcia had a hit off the bench for the Pirates, as he is now slashing .533/.611/.733 for an OPS of 1.344 in seven games.
