About $17 million in street improvements, $10 million to reduce traffic congestion and $4.5 million to repair landslides are among the projects that will be funded with about $46.6 million in bonds Pittsburgh is floating this week.
The total amount being borrowed is about $55.3 million, which includes financing costs, the city said.
The city used the New York and Oakland, Calif.-based firm Siebert Williams Shank & Co. to shepherd the transaction. The company is minority and women-owned.
It has worked with the city, its Sports and Exhibition Authority, Pittsburgh Water and Sewer Authority and Pittsburgh Public Schools, according to its regional managing director, Derek McNeil.
