SEPTA Project Impacts Penn Commuters August 4 - 19

SEPTA will enter the next phase of a multi-staged infrastructure reconstruction project for a two-week period in August.  There will be NO TRAIN SERVICE to/from University City Station from Saturday, August 4 – Sunday, August 19 (includes weekdays). During this time, patrons using the Airport, Media-Elwyn, and Wilmington-Newark rail lines can expect service substitutions or adjustments while this project work is conducted. SEPTA passengers are advised to allow extra time getting to and from their destinations or consider alternative transportation options. Visit www.septa.org for the latest schedule information. Additional project updates are available at: http://www.septa.org/southwestconnection/uc.html.

During this period, commuters who drive and park in the area can expect additional traffic congestion in University City. The Division of Public Safety offers periodic traffic advisories and commuters can sign up for these alerts by clicking here.

You are strongly encouraged to monitor SEPTA communications for detailed information as this project progresses.
