The 1994–1995 preferred alternative provided the best local service to Northeast Philadelphia.
A clear example is its inclusion of separate stations at Welsh and Grant, rather than the combined stations located halfway between both streets, or stations at 5th and 9th.
There has been a lot more police on the L recently. Keep it up!
Service patterns on the once-proposed Center City Loop. The loop was never completed, but sections were built on Arch Street and Eighth Street, which would later be used by the Bridge Line and now PATCO.
It going to become the center piece of the mixed-use neighborhood.

Love to see projects like this! 34th Street Station will receive ADA improvements and new turnstiles.

Take this survey and tell them that you want a Bus Station adjacent to 30th Street Station.

The Walkshed around the Rising Sun Station will yield strong ridership projections. 4,410 daily riders would use the station.
This is the Philadelphia equivalent of stopping the Roosevelt Boulevard Subway at Cottman.
Luckily Vancouver is taking the Broadway Subway Project very seriously.

Administrations change and time passes, but we are not going anywhere. We remain fully committed to seeing the Roosevelt Boulevard Subway built.
Very true
We haven't heard from PennDOT since April 2025. The project is alive but is being slow walked. We are here to stay and have all the time in the world.
The Roosevelt Boulevard Subway will be built this time. One Philadelphia!
We want to set the record straight: the Roosevelt Boulevard Subway remains under active study by @PennDOTNews.
This project is far from over, and we will continue pushing until the full study is completed and this line moves forward.

SEPTA should close Somerset and Kensington-Allegheny for renovations during the summer of 26'.
Finally
A piece of Forgotten Philadelphia history is Ed Bacon's return in the 1990s to defend his vision for Independence Mall.
Do you think this version is better than the current design that beat it?
Cecil B. Moore Station now has new turnstiles!
Its pretty bad, both NYC and Philadelphia need stricter laws or fines for not picking up their dog stuff.
The City has bundled Logan Triangle so many times. This is just the latest one. Mayor Parker was a extremely weak candidate on infrastructure and that has continued during her administration.
No hopefuly, we are getting this done.
Rain or Shine the Roosevelt Boulevard Subway will be there for Northeast Philadelphians.

This is the level of ambition that we need to expand the subway in Philadelphia!
This is the minimal subway extensions that Philadelphia should build by 2050. Don't for less, ask for more!
Now its time to take the next step, build mixed use neighborhoods on these parking lots. It would benefit all of these stations.
The parking is the issue, its poor land use. Those walkable downtowns would be alot better with mixed-use areas built adjacent to the stations.
The 2023 collapse of I-95 demonstrated exactly why the Roosevelt Blvd Subway is needed.
When I-95 inevitably faces future closures, whether from maintenance, accidents, or infrastructure failures, the same problem will recur: commuters flooding Roosevelt Boulevard as their primary alternative.
How would Southeastern Pennsylvania be different if the Schuykill Valley Metro and Cross-County Metro lines had been built?
This is a low hanging fruit for our region.
