Saturday morning I woke up and decided to improve Pittsburgh's trail network, so I cleaned up some stairs and sidewalks of Glenwood Bridge. The turnout was light -- it was just me :-( -- but "we" got a lot done. See pictures at

These stairs help connect the (future) GAP trail and Homestead, south of the bridge, with Oakland, Hazelwood, Duck Hollow Trail, Frick Park, Squirrel Hill, Wilkinsburg, etc, north of the bridge.
We should do more cleanups on the SW stairs, among other areas, in the coming months. Want to help? email me at

As I was wrapping up the work, a jogger and a cyclist came along, and enjoyed the rubble-free stairs.
Salty: I don't know anything about work on the Southside trail. That could be Friends of the Riverfront volunteers (I do work with them too, but it's hard to keep track of everything).
