Stevenson station

Stevenson is a station on the Port Authority of Allegheny County's light rail network, located in Dormont, Pennsylvania. The street level stop is located in a highly populated residential area that features many medium density multi-unit facilities. It serves commuters within walking distance, providing access toward Downtown Pittsburgh or South Hills Village.

In May 2024, the Federal Transit Administration awarded The T $8 million to construct accessible platforms at ten Red Line stops, including Stevenson. [3] [4]
