Did You Know…

…that it’s free to ride the T and all PAT buses within the Golden Triangle?

PAT’s Free Fare Zone is intended to reduce boarding delays and promote the use of public transit within Downtown Pittsburgh.  The zone reaches from the Allegheny to the Monongahela River and is bounded by Ross Street, Penn Station and Liberty Avenue at 11th Street.  For bus riders, fares are free within this zone from 4:00 a.m. 7:00 p.m., seven days a week.  For riders of the T, Pittsburgh’s subway, fares are free within the zone at all times.  Once you pass outside the zone, regular fares apply.

… that the Port Authority offers an online Trip Planner to get you from here to there?

PAT's Trip Planner allows you to enter a starting point, destination and desired arrival time, plus preferences like maximum walking distance and minimizing transfers.  It will provide a number of travel options, along with total trip time, printable schedules and alternative stops.

… that all PAT routes offer bike racks?

PAT’s bike-friendly vehicles include  bus routes, the T Light Rail System and the Monongahela Incline.  There’s no additional charge for carrying your bike.  Racks accommodate a two wheel non-motorized bicycle with a wheel size of 16 inches or larger.  Learn more about taking your bike here.
