The Pitt Bridge is a replica of Pittsburgh's 10th Street Bridge, serving as the only way in or out of the city. It's about medium sized, and is inhabited by a Pitt Raider, a Mole rat, 2 Dogs, and 3 Wildmen.

[edit] Background
The Pitt Raiders put mines and other traps to stop Pitt Slaves from escaping when they started to lose slaves when they escaped across the bridge.
It appears that shortly after the war, National guard troops entered Pittsburgh through the bridge, but were stalled by heavy traffic of people trying to get out of town.
[edit] Layout
On the south end there is a Wildmen camp, at the end of the bridge there is a overhang there's a Pitt Raider with a sniper rifle. At the northern end is the entrance to Downtown.
[edit] Notable Loot
- Several Frag Mines.
- A Sniper Rifle, N99 10mm Pistol and several 10mm and .308 rounds in the sniper nest.

[edit] Notes
- The shoreline and water are much, much, more irradiated than any body of water in the Capital Wasteland (around 350 on the river bank and around 500 in the water).
- There is a Raider sniper at the very top of the bridge. If you kill him and climb up the scaffolding on the pedestrian walkway on the you can get his Sniper Rifle and loot several boxes of ammunition. Even if you sign on with Ashur, this Pitt Raider is always hostile.
- Even if the player has disarmed the mines that kill the runaway slaves, they will still be killed by hidden, scripted explosions.
- The Pitt Bridge appears to be modeled after the South 10th Street Bridge of Pittsburgh, which in itself takes styling cues from San Francisco's Golden Gate bridge. Ironically, the 10th Street Bridge rarely carries any significant traffic, yet The Pitt Bridge is the primary way (if not the only way) into the Pitt.
[edit] Appearances
The Pitt Bridge appears in the Fallout 3 add-on The Pitt.
