Part of East Carson Street to be closed for Vice President Kamala Harris' visit to Pittsburgh
Two blocks of East Carson Street in Pittsburgh’s South Side will be closed Monday afternoon for a visit from Vice President Kamala Harris.
City police said the street between Sarah and South 28th streets, including the intersection of Hot Metal Street, will be closed between noon and 4:30 p.m. Other roads will be closed temporarily as Harris’ motorcade moves around the city, which could cause delays or detours for motorists.
Details of other roads that could be affected were not released. Public safety officials said they will use social media to notify motorists and residents when the motorcade has passed and streets reopen.
Few details of Harris’ visit have been announced. She will be joined by U.S. Labor Secretary Marty Walsh, former Boston mayor.
