Highland (PAT Station)

Highland is a station on the Port Authority of Allegheny County's light rail network, located in Bethel Park, Pennsylvania. Located in a railroad cut, the stop is designed as a small commuter stop, serving area residents who walk to the train so they can be taken toward Downtown Pittsburgh. A staircase to each platform is available from Highland Road, which crosses over the line on an overpass. In addition, access to the outbound platform is available through a walkway which leads to Santa Fe Drive. There is no grade crossing for passengers at the station.

In May 2024, the Federal Transit Administration awarded The T $8 million to construct accessible platforms at ten Red Line stops, including Highland.
