As a current college student in the Lehigh Valley, I hate that the Valley suffers from a deficiency of public transportation. I'm from Philadelphia, so I would love it if SEPTA would reactivate the Bethlehem Branch. At the same cost, I have interests and connections in New York. I wish that there was a viable way to get from Allentown/Bethlehem/Easton to Philly or New York.
During my second semester of college, I read that NJ Transit was considering extending the Raritan Valley Line as far as Phillipsburg, with the possibility of extending into Allentown/Bethlehem/Easton. At the time, I became jubilant at such a plan; however, I have no idea as to whether or not NJT plans to do this extension. Does anyone know if NJT is still trying to expand to at least P-burg? Do they still have their sights set on the Valley?

If I fail to make it to medical school, I will become a SEPTA engineer.
