Driving lesson: Transit cuts will make the region's congestion worse - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Driving lesson: Transit cuts will make the region's congestion worse - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: "The three-mile portion of Interstate 376 from Green Tree to the Fort Pitt Tunnel experiences such heavy traffic and long backups every day that the average trip takes 13 minutes. That's 13.8 miles per hour on a road with a 55 mph speed limit.
...

This bad news could get a whole lot worse. If the Allegheny County Port Authority has to follow through on planned service cuts in September, the corridor will lose more than 60 morning rush-hour bus trips, which will add many more cars to the mix."
