911 Calls and Upper St. Clair

Police * Fire * EMS
412. 833. 7500 * 724. 941. 7500

In December 1998 the Enhanced 911 system for this area was activated.

When a resident dials 911 in an emergency, the call is initially sent to the Allegheny County 911 Center located in the Point Breeze Section of Pittsburgh. The call is then transferred to the Upper St. Clair Dispatch Center along with the caller's phone number and address. The Upper St. Clair Dispatcher then calls the necessary emergency services (police, fire, EMS) to handle the emergency.

If you call 911 in error, you should always remain on the line and tell the dispatcher that you dialed in error. If you just hang up, the dispatcher must verify that there is no emergency at that location by calling back. If verification cannot be made by phone, then a police officer must be sent to the location of the call to verify the situation.

Remember that you are still able to call the Upper St. Clair emergency number direct at: 412.833.7500 or 724.941.7500.
