PITTSBURGH (Newsradio 1020 KDKA) - How much does it cost to get a bus out of a sinkhole? About 88,000.

That's the amount pending approval by Pittsburgh council to pay for the 300-ton crane necessary to remove a Port Authority bus from a Downtown sinkhole in October.

There are more bills to come, as utility repairs continue at 10th and Penn Avenues that remains closed to traffic.

Still no word on what caused the street to collapse or how much it will cost, but officials say it could be hundreds of thousands.
