There was an accident in the tunnel, outbound side.

Yeah, I appreciate your answer, but I got that much information from Google Maps. I'm more interested in knowing what happened in the accident, if anyone was seriously injured, what caused the accident, etc.

It took three seconds to google “squirrel hill tunnel crash” and find out that there were no injuries reported.

Thank you for hitting on the magic keywords to search. I was using 376 and not Squirrel Hill tunnel.

I'm guessing you're not from Pittsburgh originally? "Parkway East crash" would've given you the same results; locals (and the news stations) don't really refer to it as 376.

You are correct sir!

I moved to Pittsburgh from another state in 2016. I quickly learned that 376 is not a term locals use and will look at you like a dog hearing something only dogs can hear when you say it 😅 376 west of the city is Parkway West. 376 east of the city is Parkway East.
Learn it. Know it. Live it.
Oh, and welcome to Pittsburgh!

Been here for 12 years actually but thank you! Honestly I was mistaken in thinking the Pittsburgh-ese wouldn't help with the search. But I do love it here. Despite the dump trucks wrecking in the tunnel. Or the locals inability to drive straight for two minutes.

My apologies, I only saw that you weren't from Pittsburgh and assumed you were new 😬

TIL, thanks. I've just been calling it 376 as well

Yeah, calling the tunnel 376 is not going to get you anything useful. The Ft Pitt Tunnel is also on 376
