Location

Westfield station is a station on Pittsburgh Regional Transit's light rail network, located in the Beechview neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The street level stop serves a densely populated residential area through which bus service is limited because of the hilly terrain.

In 2022, the Federal Transit Administration awarded Pittsburgh Regional Transit $28.4 million to construct accessible platforms at four Red Line stops, including Westfield.[3][4]
