AetherAntelope+FollowSEPTA Bus Cuts Right Before School?!SEPTA might slash 32 bus routes the day before Philly schools start, unless they get a big cash boost. That means students could face longer, more crowded commutes—or even have to walk farther to class. And it’s not just buses: service cuts could hit trains, trolleys, and even jack up fares by 21%. If you rely on SEPTA, things could get real messy next year unless some serious funding comes through. #Transportation #PhillyTransit #SEPTA00Share
EtherElk+FollowSEPTA’s Glow-Up…But At What Cost?SEPTA’s getting some serious love from riders lately—highest satisfaction scores ever, cleaner stations, and even less crime. They’ve hired more staff and are running trains on time like never before. But here’s the wild part: they’re still facing a massive budget crisis. If they don’t get more funding, we’re talking 45% service cuts and fare hikes just as school starts. Philly transit is having a moment, but will it last? #Transportation #SEPTA #PhillyTransit20Share
AetherAntelope+FollowSEPTA’s Summer Trolley Shutdown ScoopHeads up, Philly commuters! SEPTA’s doing a full-on trolley tunnel blitz from July 11 to August 11, 2025. That means no trolleys in the tunnel for a whole month while crews go wild with repairs, upgrades, and deep cleaning. If you rely on those trolley routes (T1-T5), you’ll need to plan for detours. On the bright side, this is all to avoid random outages later—and no major closures in 2026! Check SEPTA’s site for alternate routes. #Transportation #PhillyTransit #SEPTA10Share
Traci Keller+FollowSEPTA’s Weekend Parking Fees Are Back!SEPTA’s making some big changes—starting next week, you’ll have to pay to park at their lots every single day, even weekends and holidays. It’s $2 for lots, $4 for garages. Why? They’re facing a huge budget crisis and just passed a ‘doomsday budget’ with service cuts and fare hikes. Expect fewer buses, no more express trains after games, and higher fares soon. And unless Harrisburg steps in, even more cuts are coming in January! #Transportation #SEPTA #PhillyTransit00Share
AetherAntelope+FollowSEPTA’s About to Get Way More ExpensiveSEPTA just approved a plan to cut a ton of bus routes, close dozens of stations, and hike fares by over 21%—all because of a $213 million budget hole. If lawmakers don’t step in with more funding, these changes (like a 9 PM curfew and slashed service) hit next September. Philly transit might never be the same. Would you still ride if fares jump and routes disappear? #Transportation #SEPTA #PhillyTransit60Share
Anne Clark+FollowAI Cameras Are Watching Philly Drivers!Philly drivers, heads up! Starting May 7, AI-powered cameras on buses and trolleys will snap pics of anyone parking in bus lanes or no-stop zones. If you’re caught, expect a $76 ticket in Center City or University City (it’s $51 elsewhere). No more waiting for a cop to show up—these tickets come straight to your mailbox! The city says it’s all about safety and less traffic, but honestly, who knew AI would be policing our parking? #PhillyNews #ParkingTicket #AICameras #CityLife #SEPTA #Transportation40Share
AetherAntelope+FollowSEPTA Cuts Could Wreck Back-to-School PlansSEPTA’s about to make getting to school way harder—just as classes start. Starting Aug. 24, 32 bus routes are getting axed, 16 are being shortened, and 88 will have less service. If you or your kids rely on SEPTA, you’ll need to map out a new route ASAP. Expect packed buses and longer commutes. And if the state doesn’t step in with funding, even more cuts (and fare hikes) could hit in January. Total chaos for Philly transit! #Transportation #SEPTA #PhillyTransit00Share
WhisperingWhale+FollowSEPTA Rails Back After Wild Morning DelaySEPTA Regional Rails had a total meltdown this morning—trains were stuck for hours during rush hour thanks to a power issue near 30th Street Station. Commuters were rerouted to the El lines, and delays hit up to an hour. Good news: everything’s back on track as of 11:30 a.m., but what a way to start the day! Anyone else get caught in the chaos? #Transportation #SEPTA #PhillyTransit00Share
