A refurbished and repainted 1996 NovaBus Classic, one of many PAT buses that feature various color schemes, designs and messages.

Pittsburgh Regional Transit's bus system covers Allegheny County, and its service extends into small portions of neighboring Beaver, Butler, and Westmoreland counties. These counties also have their own transit systems, including several routes that run into Downtown Pittsburgh, where riders can make connections with Pittsburgh Regional Transit service. In 2023, the system had a ridership of 34,467,400.

Route renumbering and realignments

From 1964 to 2010, the Port Authority used an alphanumeric numbering system. With the renumbering and realignments outlined in the Transit Development Plan in 2009, the present numbering system was adopted in April 2010.

Light rail and busways are designated by the following colors:

As a result of the Transit Development Plan and a series of service cuts, many routes have been reworked or eliminated.

South Hills Junction station is a station on Pittsburgh Regional Transit's light rail network.

In 1993 the Overbrook (Blue) Line was shut down for complete reconstruction to serve the modern-day light rail cars. During construction, it was found that a segment of track between the Boggs Ave. stop and South Hills Junction was too narrow for the larger vehicles; this was bypassed with two wide-curved rail ramps built between the Beechview (Red) Line's Palm Garden stop and South Hills Junction where the two branches now merge.
