My husband is from there. We lived there for about 15 years and lived in the suburbs. I would not go downtown because I was intimidated by all those tubes and tunnels and bridges. If you accidentally got onto the wrong one you were so s.o.l. I hated it.
Oh it’s just awful...I made a trip down for a meeting and couldn’t get off the right ramp....then when I did it was trying to find a two way street (impossible) and just when I finally saw the bridge I needed to go on the police pulled me over to a side street because I was in the bus lane...and that street took me up a side hill into a turn around I couldn’t get off......I was over an hour and half stuck in all those loops before I finally got to the Hotel.......Never again have I driven in Pittsburgh!
