How Many Bridges Are in Pittsburgh?

Out of these, the City of Pittsburgh itself owns 143 active bridges spanning rivers, valleys, and various terrains within its limits. The rest are owned by entities like Allegheny County, Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT), transit authorities, railroads, or private groups.

These bridges vary in design and purpose, with notable examples including the Fort Pitt Bridge and Fort Duquesne Bridge that are key to transportation infrastructure. The extensive number reflects Pittsburgh's unique geography, featuring three major rivers—the Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio—that require many crossings to connect neighborhoods.
