==Transportation== [[File:I-376 near Monroeville, PA.jpg|thumb|Interstate 376 goes through Monroeville]] [[U.S. Route 22]] ran through Monroeville as a substantial business route. When the Parkway East (I-376) was extended east to connect to the Pennsylvania Turnpike, U.S. 22 was shifted to that road, and the original U.S. 22 stretch of [[William Penn Highway]] became Business U.S. 22. Today, [[U.S. Route 22 in Pennsylvania|U.S. Route 22]] runs through the municipality, serving as its main business district. This highway, along with the [[Pennsylvania Turnpike]] ([[Interstate 76 (east)|Interstate 76]]), the eastern portion of the [[Penn-Lincoln Parkway]] ([[Interstate 376]] concurrent with U.S. 22), [[U.S. Route 22 Business (Monroeville, Pennsylvania)|U.S. Route 22 Business]], and [[Pennsylvania Route 48|PA Route 48]] intersect in Monroeville. Exit 57 (old Exit 6) of the Pennsylvania Turnpike is in Monroeville, with its interchange to Interstate 376. [[U.S. Route 22]] also has an interchange with [[PA Route 286]], which serves the northeastern part of the municipality. [[Pittsburgh–Monroeville Airport]], also called Harold W. Brown Memorial Field, was a private airport at {{coord|40.452290|N|79.774768|W|}}. The airport has a single paved runway of {{convert|2280|ft}}. Two bus lines of the [[Pittsburgh Regional Transit]] offer service to downtown Pittsburgh, and maintains several park-and-ride lots located in Monroeville for bus commuters to Pittsburgh. Passenger rail service by Amtrak's [[Pennsylvanian (train)|Pennsylvanian]] passes through once daily in each direction on the [[Pittsburgh Line]], but does not call in Monroeville. Many freight trains arrive via the same track to [[Norfolk Southern]]'s Pitcairn Intermodal Terminal which straddles the Monreoville-North Versailles border in the Turtle Creek valley. U. S. Steel's [[Union Railroad (Pittsburgh)|Union Railroad]] runs along its own track through the Thompson Run valley between Wilkins Township and Monroeville, where it has one of its facilities. The [[Westmoreland Heritage Trail]] is a [[rail-trail]] that connects cyclists and pedestrians in Monroeville to neighboring Trafford and Murrysville along the right of way where the [[Turtle Creek Industrial Railroad]] once ran.
