It's near my office. Offers some great views of downtown and the river. It's nice in the spring and late fall, when the sunsets are really gorgeous.

Used it before a Pirates game when it was closed to traffic. Very safe to travel across the river on foot. Gives a great view of the downtown area.

There is nothing quite like walking across the Roberto Clemente Bridge on your way to a Pittsburgh Pirates Baseball game at PNC Park. Park your vehicle in any of the city garages and do yourself a favor and take in the pre-game entertainment which includes, but not limited to: Roasted Peanuts, Exquisite Views, and Live Entertainment (Saxophone Player & Fireworks!!)...

Pittsburgh has more bridges than any city in the world,save Venice.If you want to see a masterpiece of bridge engineering,drive 15 miles East on Rte.30. The Westinghouse Bridge is a sight to behold,beware if you suffer from Vertigo.It is 500 Ft. from deck to ground,built from cement,it held the worlds record for many years as the largest. I used to... More

We like to park in town and walk across the bridge to go to Pittsburgh Pirate games. It adds a little something to the experience of the ballpark and ballgame.

Going to PNC park or coming back into the downtown area, the Roberto Clemente Bridge is not only a study in architecture, and a great way to view the city at ground level, but is named for one of the Best Baseball players and humanitarians ever. What a great view of the park and the point.

Warm months bring a Kayak vendor and we paddled beneath the bridge and up river (carefully avoiding barges!)...and when the Steelers traffic was insane we parked next to Olive Or Twist on 6th (rumored Ann Hathaway's only PIttsburgh Martini bar!) and walked across among the fun vendors to Heinz Field. FUN!

We are proud to name a bridge after Roberto Clemente, but for gosh sakes, it's just one of a dozen yellow bridges in Downtown Pittsburgh! Walking across it will take you to the Northside--not an area to wander around aimlessly--it can be quite dangerous! This bridge is located on very high traffic Downtown streets, and there is NOTHING to it... More

In truth it's just a bridge. But it is a beautiful bridge, one of Pittsburgh's many. From the Clemente Bridge you can get some really good pics of the stadiums, river, and North Shore bridges. This is the bridge you'd walk across when parking downtown for a Pirates game.

This and its 2 sister bridges are the only 3 identical bridges in a row in the world. Closed on Pitt and Steelers football game days as well as for Pirates games, walking across and looking at the views is a must do for any Pittsurgh resident or visitor!
