MEDIA ADVISORY

SUPER BOWL STREET CLOSURES

PITTSBURGH: The PBP has a comprehensive plan for the successful coordination between local, county, state and federal agencies to ensure the safety of citizens and public safety personnel. The PBP will have a full contingent of over 400 law enforcement personnel on patrol Super Bowl Sunday, February 1, 2009, in anticipation of a Steeler victory or loss. It is the focus of law enforcement to maintain a peaceful and controlled celebration, perform crowd control management throughout the city and safeguard against damage to public and private property. Pittsburgh EMS and Bureau of Fire will provide additional personnel for this event.

Due to the probability of increased foot and vehicular traffic in areas of the city which are typically prone to public displays of celebratory activity, there will be an increase of police presence and the following street closures will be in effect.
