A manhole cover assembly includes a manhole cover supportable by a manhole frame. The manhole cover defines a latch bore having a longitudinal axis. A latch housing extends from the manhole cover, and a latch assembly is positioned at least partially therein. A first end of a latch yoke extends through the latch bore and slidably couples the latch yoke to the manhole cover along the longitudinal axis. A latch member is rotatably coupled to the second end of the latch yoke about a first transverse axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The latch member is also rotatably coupled to the latch housing about a second transverse axis spaced from the first transverse axis. The latch member is selectively rotatable relative to the latch housing about the second transverse axis, between a locked position and an unlocked position, via sliding the latch yoke relative to the manhole cover.
