Getting Downtown Via Public Transit:

Hop on a bus or go underground to any one of the four light rail (‘T’) stations. It will cost you less than you might expect — in some cases, it won’t cost you a thing. PPG Place is just a few steps away from the Gateway “T” stop.

Downtown ‘T’ rides within the free fare zone are free all of the time between Gateway Center, Wood Street, Steel Plaza, First Avenue, and the North Side Station.

The North Shore connector links downtown to the North Shore, taking “T” riders to PNC Park, Heinz Field, the Science Center, and the Rivers Casino.

Rides are free from Downtown to the North Side and Allegheny “T” Stations.
