DRPA public meetings on Delaware Waterfront rail line

September 22, 2009 5:30pm - 7:30pm

As the project moves forward, DRPA and PATCO will present the status of the analysis at two public open houses. The open houses are scheduled for:

 

Tuesday, September 22, 2009
Friends Meeting House
4th and Arch Streets
Philadelphia, PA 19106
5:30-7:30pm
Wednesday, September 30, 2009
The Historical Society of Pennsylvania
1300 Locust Street
Philadelphia, PA 19107
5:30-7:30pm

 

Alternatives Intially Considered:

 

  • Alternative PA-1 would add an above ground transit service along the Waterfront with a connection to PATCO services at Franklin Square.

  • Alternative PA-1 Extended proposes to extend SEPTA’s Subway-Surface Lines to Franklin Square via subway under Arch and Cherry Streets.  The route would continue to the Waterfront. 

  • Alternative PA-2 would extend rail service along or under Market Street to the Waterfront.

  • Alternative PA-3 would add an above ground transit service along the Waterfront via a connection to PATCO services at Franklin Square and operate as a loop using 7th Street, Cherry Street, 8th Street and Filbert Street with a connection to the Market East Concourse.
