A 40-foot tall Norway Spruce Christmas tree will make its journey to the City-County Building in Downtown Pittsburgh Saturday, bringing several traffic restrictions with it.
This year's tree will be coming from Lawrenceville's Leslie Park.
Drivers can expect delays and rolling traffic closures from about 7:30-9:30 a.m. Saturday starting along Butler Street where it meets 46th Street and heading toward the 62nd Street Bridge.
From there, the tree will travel along southbound Route 28 toward the Veterans Bridge to Crosstown Boulevard before exiting onto Grant Street.
Both lanes of Grant Street in front of the City-County Building will be closed as the tree is installed Saturday.
On Sunday, the street’s northbound lane will be closed from 6:30 a.m.-2 p.m. to allow for decorating.
A tree lighting ceremony is set for November 22 at 5 p.m. as part of Light Up Night festivities.
