  • At-A-Glance MEDIA INFORMATION GUIDE
    At-A-Glance MEDIA INFORMATION GUIDE SEPTA.ORG/MEDIA UPDATED June 2018 THEN & NOW HISTORY On February 18, 1964, the Pennsylvania General Assembly established the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) to provide public transit services for Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery and Philadelphia Counties. The Center City Commuter Tunnel (CCCT) which was opened in 1984, joined the previously separate Penn Central and Reading Railroads by turning the two terminal stations into through stations, resulting in a more efficient system. TIMELINE: To build the network of services our customers know today, transportation companies were acquired through our history. 1968 – Philadelphia Transportation Company (PTC) 1969 – Philadelphia Suburban Transportation Company (Red Arrow) 1976 – Schuylkill Valley Lines (Frontier) 1983 – Regional Rail (Conrail commuter rail services) 1984 – Center City Commuter Tunnel (CCCT) opened 1985 – Airport Regional Rail Line opened SERVICE AREA Today, SEPTA is the nation’s sixth largest public transportation system, and the largest in Pennsylvania, serving the five- county area of Philadelphia, Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery Counties (2,202 square miles) with a population of approximately four million. The system also extends into central New Jersey and northern Delaware. SEPTA’s vast network of fixed route services includes bus, subway, trolley, trackless trolley, high speed and Regional Rail and serves approximately 1.3 million customers daily. SEPTA is also one of the region’s largest employers, with a workforce of more than 9,600. BUDGET SEPTA’s Fiscal Year 2019 operating budget is $1.45 billion; its Fiscal Year 2019 Capital Budget is $749.62 million.

  • Movement Systems Movement Systems
    Purpose General Findings Goals Early Actions 5 Envision a New Boulevard Extend Philadelphia's Urban Fabric Expand the Transit System Embrace Innovative Infrastructure SYSTEMS MOVEMENT MOVEMENT SYSTEMS Penn's Landing at Market Street A city park at the end of Market Street will have clear views of City Hall if I-95 is reconstructed at a lower elevation. A ferry terminal and connections to the city’s transit system will make this “sixth square” a truly civic space. Movement Systems The central Delaware riverfront is host to a tangle of infrastructure that refl ects centuries of development and large-scale projects. I-95 cuts a wide swath through the entire central Delaware, and in most cases it separates residential communities from the river. Sewer outfalls reach the river every few blocks, running directly under the I-95 viaduct where it depresses in Center City and under city streets throughout the project area. Remnants of the city’s great railroad infrastructure along Delaware Avenue and Columbus Boulevard include remainder rail lines and rights-of-way. The scale of this infrastructure presents great challenges to the city, but it also presents opportunities to enhance the riverfront in the near term and to set up decision-making that could be transformative for the city in the future. Movement Systems 77 The central Delaware riverfront is generally dominated by automobiles Purpose and is difficult to traverse on foot and bike. This lack of balance is This civic vision offers Philadelphia the opportunity to improve caused by land-use regulations that do not encourage urban forms of movement systems along the central Delaware riverfront by increasing development, the tangle of I-95/676 and Delaware Avenue/Columbus opportunities for public access to the riverfront and shaping urban Boulevard serving as a high-volume arterial highway.

  • Organizations & Departments with Oversight
    A Civic Vision for the Central Delaware 2 PennPraxis WRT William Penn Foundation F O R E W O R D The William Penn Foundation, founded in 1945 by Otto and Phoebe Haas, is dedicated to improving the quality of life in the Greater Philadelphia region. We seek to build on the region’s assets and enhance the economic competitiveness of Greater Philadelphia. We have long believed that the Delaware River is one of our region’s most significant assets. For more than a decade, the Foundation has sought to promote the historically industrialized Delaware Riverfront as a both a natural and community resource. In recent years the riverfront has experienced tremendous redevelopment pressure. However, due to the absence of an effective master plan and weak land use controls, most of this development has occurred in an ad-hoc and uncoordinated manner, raising concerns that the city would fail to fully maximize the waterfront’s economic and community development benefits and potential to deliver important new public access and amenities. In response to these concerns, the Foundation launched the central Delaware riverfront planning process to provide needed planning resources for the waterfront. We also sought a new model for large-scale, open, transparent civic visioning and planning that we hope will be replicable elsewhere in Philadelphia and will set a new standard for public access and participation in the city’s development decisions. Although Philadelphia has come late to the waterfront development game, our tardiness gives us one important advantage – we can learn from the experiences of many other cities.

  • Testimony of Jeffrey D. Knueppel General Manager Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority
    Testimony Of Jeffrey D. Knueppel General Manager Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority Philadelphia City Council Fiscal Year 2020 Operating Budget April 30, 2019 Good morning Council President Clarke, Transportation Committee Chair Johnson, members of City Council and other guests. I am Jeff Knueppel, and I am honored to come before you today as the General Manager for the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA). I am joined by SEPTA Philadelphia Board member, Michael Carroll, Deputy Managing Director, Office of Transportation, Infrastructure and Sustainability (OTIS). I am pleased to submit testimony supporting the Authority’s $87.6 million Fiscal Year 2020 Operating Budget request and provide the members of Council with an overview of SEPTA initiatives and milestones achieved during the past year. SEPTA’s operating budget is funded through subsidies from local, state and federal governments, the fare box and other revenues. The City’s $87.6 million contribution represents six (6) percent of the Authority’s total operating budget, and enables SEPTA to meet its state legislatively mandated requirement to secure local matching funds to match state operating subsidy dollars of approximately $739 million. SEPTA’s Fiscal Year 2020 operating budget maintains current service levels, with no increase in fares for customers. For SEPTA’s Fiscal Year 2020 capital budget, the City’s $4.58 million contribution will support a Capital Program of approximately $675 million. SEPTA is investing in critical infrastructure in Philadelphia and advancing projects including: modernization of 30th Street Station on the Market–Frankford Line, expansion of the Wissahickon Transportation Center, accessibility improvements to Susquehanna-Dauphin and Tasker-Morris Stations on the Broad Street Line, ongoing rehabilitation of the 15th Street and City Hall Stations complex, and continued improvements to the Center City Concourse network.
