PITTSBURGH — The Monongahela Incline is closed once again.
According to Pittsburgh Regional Transit, the Mon Incline shut down around 3:45 p.m. Tuesday because of an issue with the doors.
Until the issue is resolved, a shuttle bus will run between the upper and lower stations.

The Mon Incline has repeatedly shut down in the last year, including several longer closures — like a 10-day closure in August 2023 after two cars got stuck with people inside and a five-week closure in early 2024 while crews worked to fix electrical and mechanical problems.
Only days after the incline came back in service from the five-week closure, it briefly shut down because of a door issue.
