NEW: Daytime, weekday road closures in PGH are up 31% compared to 2025 and 61% compared to 2024. You aren’t crazy. It’s caused a lot of headaches for locals, but city says work is needed to replace lead water pipes & upgrade aging infrastructure. More here axios.com/local/pittsburgh/2…

Apart from being a Southwest PA legend, Iris also has the distinction of opening up the city’s newest music venue (Citizens Live at The Wylie on September 28), which was his final performance.
Very sad news to pass along:
The great Donnie Iris has died, at 83.
Everyone loved him -- here is the obit.

That’s the route for Saturday. 2PM start.
Starting point is exactly the square where the Steelers had their fan event planned, hence the cancelation.

If you are a real football freak and want to watch college games Saturday or other pro games after Steelers games (and likely avoid protests) head to the neighborhood just south of Norte Dame cathedral to Canadian and American sports bars. More info here axios.com/local/pittsburgh/2…

A Montgomery County PA commissioner wants to see his county adopt paid parental leave after Allegheny County passed its law last night.
Congrats @Innamo and Allegheny council! Montgomery County is inspired. I am urging out Board of Public Health to consider your policy. Montco should be next!
