The current development taking place on the North Shore will be affecting a lot of things during the 2009 season at Heinz Field especially the parking situation. Unless you have pre-sold parking, the best way to avoid all the construction and detours is to... PARK IN THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE (DOWNTOWN) Parking in the Golden Triangle is an easy and cost attractive way to get to Heinz Field. The garages/lots described below and other Triangle garages cost only $5.00 on game days! From Golden Triangle parking and the Gateway T station, you can enjoy a pleasant walk to Heinz Field via the Clemente Bridge or Ft. Duquesne Bridge Sidewalks.

For more information, visit PITTSBURGH PARKING AUTHORITY and PITTSBURGH DOWNTOWN PARTNERSHIP web sites. Want to Minimize Walking? If you park in the Golden Triangle, you can catch a ride on a Shuttle Bus (for only $1.50 each way, per person). The Shuttle Bus stops at Heinz Field Art Rooney Avenue near Gate A.
