MEDIA INQUIRY re:Riverton Bridge

Fellow cyclists,

My name is Moriah Balingit and I'm a reporter with the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. I'm writing a story about the opening of the Riverton Bridge as a bike/pedestrian bridge and was wondering if anyone could comment on what it's like to try to traverse the river using the McKeesport-Duquesne Bridge, given that the new Riverton Bridge will provide a presumably safer alternative. My phone number is 916-320-4034 and my e-mail is mbalingit@post-gazette.com. If you e-mail comments, please provide your full name and where you're from if you'd like to appear in the article.

My story is due TOMORROW AT NOON. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Moe

I did not know this was opening so soon. Very neat. I've never ridden 'cross the McKeesport-Duquesne Bridge, it never looked particularly safe/sensible/enjoyable when Ive been riding around there.


I'll definitely head there to see this bridge though
