SEPTA Storm Plans For Wednesday, February 10
PHILADELPHIA , February 9, 2010
In advance of tomorrow’s snow storm SEPTA has announced it will operate the transportation system for as long as safely possible, but customers should be prepared for the possible cancellation of service, on a route by route basis, as the storm progresses.
SEPTA will attempt to give customers at least a one-hour notice of service cancellations via the broadcast news media, the SEPTA web site - www.septa.org - and SEPTA’s Twitter account. Information is also available by calling SEPTA Customer Service at (215) 580-7800.
It is strongly recommended that customers heading toward Center City from outlying areas use the terminus stations of the Broad Street Subway and Market Frankford Elevated. On the Broad Street line, the stations are Fern Rock to the north and Pattison Avenue to the south. For the Market Frankford Elevated, the stations are 69th Street to the west and Frankford Transportation Center to the east.
Both subway lines will also operate throughout the night time hours, tomorrow night, on a half-hourly basis.
Extra efforts will be made to maintain service on the following major bus and trolley routes:
In the city, bus routes 14, 21, 23, 27, 33, 47, 52, 55, 60, 66, 79, C and R. Trolley routes 10, 11, 13, 15, 34 and 36.
In the suburban counties, bus routes 93, 96, 99, 104, 109, 110, 113, 124, 125 and 130. Trolley routes 101, 102.
Route 100, The Norristown High Speed Line is always susceptible to drifting snow and will likely be suspended.
Customized Community Transportation (CCT) which provides reserved transportation for senior citizens and the disabled will operate tomorrow only for customers with reservations for dialysis treatment.
Bus routes which normally operate in private areas such as corporate business parks, shopping malls and college campuses will not enter those properties.
