As Pittsburgh emerged from the Great Depression, efforts were begun to clean up the city's urban area and to provide better transportation access to and from the Golden Triangle and the surrounding suburbs. When the Fort Duquesne Bridge was finally completed in 1968, it marked the formal end of the implementation of the Moses Plan. The arterial network coming into and out of the city was now complete. Although the plan did not unfold exactly as originally designed, when completed it accomplished everything that Robert Moses had intended, and the Golden Triangle's look had been altered in many positive ways, both aesthetically and functionally.
