  • Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules
    Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules July 2008 Dear DRPA and PATCO Customers: Thank you for your interest in the Delaware River Port Authority and Port Authority Transit Corporation. We appreciate the opportunity to present to you the proposed changes to the toll and fare structures. For the last several years, we have committed to cost-savings measures that have enabled us to operate without changes to our toll or fare structures. However, we now face a very challenging time as our future needs will require us to find additional revenue sources to fund our Capital Program which is critical to maintaining the safety, security and serviceability of our assets. We are confident that with the feedback received from you, our customers, we will be able to propose a plan to our Board of Commissioners that will enable us to face the challenges that lie ahead. We value your opinion and look forward to your comments and suggestions. Yours truly, John J. Matheussen Chief Executive Officer, Delaware River Port Authority President, Port Authority Transit Corporation The Delaware River Port Authority The Delaware River Port Authority of Pennsylvania and New Jersey is a regional transportation agency. DRPA’s lines of business, collectively called “the Authority,” operate under the motto “We Keep the Region Moving.” DRPA traces its roots back to 1919 when leaders from the two states began planning for a bridge across the Delaware River. That bridge, now known as the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, was once the longest suspension bridge in the world. Today, more than 80 years after its opening, the Benjamin Franklin Bridge remains a key transportation artery and a regional landmark.

    Future Home of the Sixers at the Camden Waterfront Phaedra Trethan, @CP_Phaedra 3:27 p.m. EST March 7, 2016 CAMDEN - The steel, concrete and glass of the Philadelphia 76ers' new practice facility is rising along the Camden Waterfront — along with, team officials hope, the Sixers' fortunes and those of the city they'll soon call home. “We’re extremely excited to go (to Camden),” said Lara Price, the Sixers' executive vice president for business operations. “We’ve worked in conjunction with Mayor (Dana) Redd and city officials and it’s been such an amazing process. … Buy Photo “It’s really exciting to be part of something The future practice facility of the Philadelphia 76ers is under construction at the Camden that’s instituting change.” Waterfront.(Photo: Jose F.

Soon, however, she’ll be able to take in a different view of the same skyline — from across the Delaware River in Camden. The new facility, the Sixers say, will be the biggest and best in the NBA. The complex between the BB&T Center concert venue and Adventure Aquarium will be, essentially, a “bubble” for players to train, practice, watch video, receive various kinds of physical therapy, even take meals. A recent tour of the site by two Courier-Post reporters and a photographer found a busy construction site, with workers moving through steel framing and boxed piles of building materials.

  • Camden County Smart Growth Transit Analysis
    Camden County Smart Growth Transit Analysis prepared for: The Senator Walter Rand Institute, The City of Camden, Camden County Board of Freeholders, and The Greater Camden Partnership prepared by: Voorhees Transportation Policy Institute Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey December 2002 Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center Transportation Opportunities and Constraints in the Camden Hub This report explores the potential for smart growth opportunities in the Camden Hub (the city of Camden and thirteen surrounding municipalities). Its purpose is to propose a transit-based redevelopment strategy that will promote sustainable development at both the local and regional levels within the Camden Hub. The Camden Hub possesses a number of public transit assets — PATCO Speedline (PATCO), the NJ Transit Atlantic City line, and the NJ Transit bus system — as well as the Southern New Jersey Light Rail Transit System (SNJLRTS) which will soon be opened for service, which could be capitalized on to better serve the development needs of the city of Camden and the surrounding region. These transit assets could provide an essential framework for the targeting of economic development and the revitalization of the city of Camden as a job, residential and recreation center. At the outset, the paper will briefly describe the experience of Jersey City, another city across the river from a major central business district, which has experienced smart growth development focused around its public transit assets. While there are many differences between the situations of Jersey City and Camden, valuable lessons can be learned from Jersey City that could be applicable to Camden’s circumstances.
