Big boosts for paving and the city vehicle fleet
Summary
The 2027 capital budget puts $23.8 million into street resurfacing — over $7 million more than this year — and $20.3 million into the long-underfunded fleet, helped by gifts from UPMC and Highmark. Good news for anyone who drives on Pittsburgh's pothole-prone roads.
