Pittsburgh is preparing for the 2026 NFL Draft with a series of road closures in the Downtown and North Shore areas. The closures, which began in late March, will continue through early May to create a walkable Draft Campus. The main draft events will take place from April 23-25 at Acrisure Stadium and Point State Park. The goal of these closures is to provide a safe and walkable experience while balancing the needs of the community and the event's buzz. Some roads have already closed, including three near Acrisur Stadium and several others set to remain blocked through April 21.
