| Kathy Berggren, KDKA-AM's Larry Richert |
When Kathy Berggren, began doing traffic reports for KDKA-AM in 1982, one of the cities major traffic routes: the Parkway North (I-279) hadn't been built yet. That major Pittsburgh artery didn't open until 1989,reports Pittsburgh Patch.
Over the past 42 years, Berggren, has reported on countless accidents, weather-releated incidents and other traffic tie-ups that have delayed motorists from reaching their destination. But that came to an end Friday, when she delivered her last traffic update on the station's morning show.
Berggren discussed her retirement with KDKA-AM morning show co-host Larry Richert as tributes popped up on the station's social media sites.
