The 2026 NFL Draft in Pittsburgh is over, but some roads remain closed as crews tear down the infrastructure set up during the three-day event.

By May 11, things should be back to normal.

There are three phases of road closures left in the initial six-phase plan that was announced ahead of the draft by transportation leaders and city officials.

Phase 4 began Sunday and will last through Friday. The following roads are still closed during that time:

Casino Drive (from Sproat Way) North Shore Drive (to Chuck Noll Way) Reedsdale Street (to Tony Dorsett Drive) Chuck Noll Way Tony Dorsett Drive Interstate 279 Southbound Exit 1B

These roads are in addition to the Phase 1 closures, which include:

Art Rooney Avenue West General Robinson Street (to Tony Dorsett Drive) Scotland Avenue

Following Phase 4, the last two phases will be as follows:

Phase 5 closures (May 2-6): Reedsdale Street, Chuck Noll Way, Tony Dorsett Drive, along with the closures in Phase 1 (Art Rooney Avenue, West General Robinson Street to Tony Dorsett Drive and Scotland Avenue) Phase 6 closures (May 7-10): Art Rooney Avenue, West General Robinson Street (to Tony Dorsett Drive), Scotland Avenue
