Here is an interesting video on the tunnel of all tunnels. Plus a myth resolved. There are no emergency tunnels for pedestrian traffic. Emergency exits only connect to the adjacent tubes. That's why both tubes are closed during an accident despite the other not effected.

Seems that there are going to be adding traffic lights to the 'middle' of the Highland Park Bridge connector here in Pittsburgh.  That will be weird for sure.

https://www.post-gazette.com/news/transportation/2022/03/27/highland-park-bridge-route-28-penndot-ramp-closure-traffic-disruptions/stories/202203250107

QuoteThe project also will change the configuration of traffic entering the bridge to eliminate a dangerous merge for northbound traffic. And traffic signals will be installed where Freeport Road traffic merges onto the bridge to head south and on Freeport Road at the ramp just past Western Avenue in Aspinwall that takes traffic to a merge point on the bridge and then onto Route 28.

Well that ends any slim chance to convince me to add the Highland Park Bridge to usasf in Travel Mapping.

Yep, here's the proof:

Those new traffic lights are now visible in StreetView.
