As part of the Crum Creek Viaduct Replacement Project, the Media-Elwyn Line west of Swarthmore Station will be temporarily taken out of service this summer to allow crews to complete the installation of the new bridge. During the 11 week outage – Saturday, June 18 through Sunday, September 4 – SEPTA will shuttle bus customers between Elwyn and Swarthmore Stations. Customers who use Elwyn, Media, Moylan-Rose Valley and Wallingford Stations will be transported via bus to and from Swarthmore Station where regular Regional Rail service will operate. SEPTA has scheduled five (5) public Open Houses to provide SEPTA customers and members of the community an overview of the project, the summer outage plan and shuttle busing options. Representatives from SEPTA and the consultant team will be available to discuss the project and answer questions. Please plan to attend an open house that is convenient for you.

Built in 1895, the Crum Creek Viaduct – known locally as “the Trestle” – rises more than 100 feet above Crum Creek and spans a length of more than 915 feet. Emergency repairs performed in 1983 were intended to extend the life of the bridge by 25 years. Thirty-three years later, the Crum Creek Viaduct has reached the end of its useful life and requires replacement. With funding made possible through Pennsylvania Act 89, SEPTA is now able to undertake this critical replacement project to ensure continued safe and efficient rail service for the thousands of Delaware County residents who rely on the Media-Elwyn Line every day.
