Th is project is the third phase of the ongoing revitalization eff orts in the Cheltenham Avenue corridor, aimed at encouraging new business and strengthening existing retail. Because the corridor straddles both Cheltenham Township and the City of Philadel- phia, this is a joint eff ort. Phase I of the project, completed by Kise Straw & Kolodner, Brown & Keener Bressi, and Urban Partners, focused on physi- cal land development and zoning issues aff ecting the corridor. It encouraged pedestrian-friendly design, uniform signage to create a sense of place, and the unifi cation of both sides of the avenue. Phase II was a feasibility study for the creation of a Business Im- provement District (BID) for the Cheltenham Avenue Corridor. Ultimately, this phase of the project also included the implemen- tation of a BID, and was led by the Atlantic Group. project approach Th is phase of the project is designed to examine nearby neighbor- hood retail centers to explore what projects have been completed in these areas, and determine where funding should be directed in the future in order to support revitalization. 1 2 cheltenham avenue related neighborhood commercial centers neighborhood commercial corridors In recent years, several public investments have been ongoing in the region, including PennDOT’s reconstruction of Rt. 309, the addition of sidewalks, Cheltenham Avenue: A Plan for Bridging the Boundary was the fi rst part of a Cheltenham’s completion of the update of their Comprehensive Plan, and three phase project designed to promote the revitalization of the Cheltenham Pennsylvania’s TRID legislation, which allows for stronger mechanisms for Avenue corridor. Th is dual-municipality plan is the result of a joint planning investment in transit-oriented development. Major private developments process including both the City of Philadelphia and Cheltenham Township. have also been ongoing; for example, Arcadia University has developed a new Th e concept behind the plan is to improve and expand commercial uses in the main entrance, built several new campus buildings, and re-landscaped the area corrifor in order to create retail destinations that attract high-quality invest- along Route 309. ment and serve the community. Cheltenham Avenue: Expanding the Vision is intended to expand these concepts into adjacent commercial areas. Th is document seeks to explore ongoing and planned investment in these areas, and help clarify where future investment should be focused. It is based on several previous studies completed for the region, including Shops, Streets, Centers: A Guide for Transforming Commercial Corridors in the 9th Council- manic District, and the Cheltenham Township Commercial District Enhance- ment Plan. Shops, Streets, Centers: A Guide for Transforming Commercial Corridors in the 9th Councilmanic District was initiated and managed by the Offi ce of Coun- cilwoman Marian Tasco in Philadelphia. Th is plan examines the challenges and opportunities of each of the corridors studied and presents strategies for making them more successful, with the underlying thesis that transforming corridors can help stabilize and improve home values in the neighborhoods in which they are located. Th e plan suggests potential niches that each of the corridors might leverage and recommends both public and private sector investments that would spark revitalization. Th e Cheltenham Township Commercial District Enhancement Plan was com- pleted in 2000 by Carter van Dyke Associates, Urban Partners, Gannet Flem- ming, and Runyan & Associates. Th e plan was geared towards developing a vision for each of the 5 commercial districts within the Township, and created recommendations and a time frame for their implementation. 3 District Vision (adapted from “Shops Streets Centers”) Key Advantages Main Disadvantages Ogontz Avenue is a regional and neighborhood commercial destination • Proximity to Cheltenham • Wide street not favorable OGONTZ offering an eclectic mix of professional Avenue and bus transit node to pedestrians AVENUE services, medical services, reputable • Good mix of businesses • Billboards and auto repair dining options, and quality neighborhood shops convenience goods and services.

    Created in 1965, the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) is an interstate, intercounty and intercity agency that provides continuing, comprehensive and coordinated planning to shape a vision for the future growth of the Delaware Valley region. The region includes Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties, as well as the City of Philadelphia, in Pennsylvania; and Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Mercer counties in New Jersey. DVRPC provides technical assistance and services; conducts high priority studies that respond to the requests and demands of member state and local governments; fosters cooperation among various constituents to forge a consensus on diverse regional issues; determines and meets the needs of the private sector; and practices public outreach efforts to promote two-way communication and public awareness of regional issues and the Commission. Our logo is adapted from the official DVRPC seal, and is designed as a stylized image of the Delaware Valley. The outer ring symbolizes the region as a whole, while the diagonal bar signifies the Delaware River. The two adjoining crescents represent the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the State of New Jersey. DVRPC is funded by a variety of funding sources including federal grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA), the Pennsylvania and New Jersey departments of transportation, as well as by DVRPC’s state and local member governments. The authors, however, are solely responsible for its findings and conclusions, which may not represent the official views or policies of the funding agencies. DVRPC fully complies with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and related statutes and regulations in all programs and activities.

This document describes the service proposals suggested by the general public, government agencies, elected officials and Authority staff, and presents the technical and financial analyses that determine whether the proposals merit implementation. The Plan includes projects for City Transit and Suburban Transit. There are no proposals for Regional Rail. This year marks the 19th Annual Service Plan and its associated planning process. This and the previous efforts reflect SEPTA’s ongoing commitment to improve the performance and productivity of transit routes and regional rail lines through careful measurement of both ridership changes and operating cost based upon a numeric scoring methodology. This method, fully described for each proposal, includes measures for revenues, operating costs, and impacts to existing riders. Additionally, each proposal must meet minimum performance standards, adopted by the SEPTA Board, prior to review within the service plan process.
