PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- The bathtub section of the Parkway East reopened Sunday evening after a weekend of more flooding.

The bathtub closed Friday afternoon just in time to cause a headache during rush hour traffic.

Officials announced the bathtub reopened around 6 p.m. Sunday.

The 10th Street Bypass was also under water Friday.
