With a new administration taking charge in Harrisburg, Sen. Jim Brewster, D-Allegheny, is leading a bipartisan effort to push for expedited completion of the long-delayed Mon-Fayette Expressway.

In a letter to Gov. Josh Shapiro, Brewster and a group of Southwest Pennsylvania senators are asking the administration to consider using federal infrastructure funds to speed completion of the final section of the roadway which has been planned and built for more than four decades but remains a few miles short of completion.
