  • King of Prussia Rail Project Frequently Asked Questions Vers.: Summer 2014 These Frequently Asked Questions (Faqs) Have Been
    King of Prussia Rail Project Frequently Asked Questions Vers.: Summer 2014 These frequently asked questions (FAQs) have been developed to help residents, businesses and area stakeholders develop a better understanding of the proposed King of Prussia Rail Project, the development process, proposed preliminary alternatives and next steps. Additional questions and answers will be added to this list as project activities progress. 1. What is the proposed King of Prussia Rail Project? The King of Prussia Rail Project proposes to extend the existing Norristown High Speed Line into the King of Prussia area, providing a “one‐seat” ride to King of Prussia from either the 69th Street Transportation Center in Upper Darby or the Norristown Transportation Center in Norristown. The extension is expected to provide better transit service to the King of Prussia Mall and adjacent employment centers. This should improve regional mobility, provide an alternative to auto travel in the area which may help reduce congestion, and support development of multimodal transportation options for commuters, shoppers, students and visitors. 2. What is the Norristown High Speed Line? The Norristown High Speed Line (NHSL), is a modern, electrified train that runs from the 69th Street Transportation Center in Upper Darby to the Norristown Transportation Center. The line has 22 stops or stations, including Bryn Mawr, Villanova, Gulph Mills and Bridgeport. The line carries approximately 10,000 riders per day. Express and local trains run on a frequent schedule with service from approximately 4:30 a.m. until 2 a.m. The line is classified as an “inter‐urban” line and runs entirely on its own right‐of‐way which was inherited from the original Philadelphia and Western Railroad (sometimes referred to as the "old P&W," or the Route 100).

    John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge Comprehensive Conservation Plan Pre-planning Activities, Agency and Public Scoping, And, Summary of Issues July 2010 Introduction The following describes the agency and public scoping process and how others were engaged in developing issues for the draft Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP). First, it details pre-planning activities and our efforts to encourage involvement of the public and conservation partners: other federal and state agencies, federally recognized tribes, county and municipal officials, civic groups, non-governmental conservation and education organizations, and user groups. It then summarizes the comments of those attending agency and public scoping meetings or those providing written comment by June 11, 2010, within the 30-day period for public review on issues for consideration at the refuge. This summary does not detail the dozens of meetings, events, and informal discussions the refuge manager and staff have had since January 2010 where the CCP was a topic of conversation. Those involved a wide range of audiences, including conservation groups, elected officials or their staffs, educators, refuge visitors, Friends of Heinz Refuge members, and other interested individuals. During those discussions, the refuge manager and his staff would provide an update on CCP progress and encourage comments and participation. Chronological Summary of CCP Pre-planning and Scoping Process Our refuge planning staff began formally on January 21, 2010 during a conference call between refuge staff, regional office staff, and contractors. One of the major outcomes of the meeting was a timetable for accomplishing the major steps in the planning process and determining when and how we should involve others.

Nutter, Mayor Mark McDonald, Press Secretary Office: 215-686-6210 Cell: 267-303-9248 Tuesday, June 16, 2015 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MAYOR NUTTER AND CITY OFFICIALS RELEASE TRANSPORTATION DETAILS FOR WORLD MEETING OF FAMILIES & PAPAL VISIT Philadelphia, June 16, 2015 – Mayor Michael A. Nutter, City and agency officials announced preliminary information about public transportation options during the World Meeting of Families convening, September 22-25, 2015, and the weekend of the Papal Visit, September 26-27, 2015. “At this point, we are about three months away from hosting the largest event in this City’s history,” said Mayor Nutter. “We wanted to begin sharing information with residents and business owners as soon as possible so that they can begin making arrangements for this week, whether they plan to attend any of the World Meeting of Families events or just need to go about their daily routines. Make no mistake, the City of Philadelphia will have the world’s attention, and we are doing our part to be as prepared and coordinated as possible.” With more than 1.5 million people expected for the Papal Visit on Saturday and Sunday, and substantial crowds for the World Meeting of Families convening during the week, it is critical for visitors and residents to understand the logistics involved in getting into Center City Philadelphia. Travelers should keep in mind: Be prepared to walk to your destination after debarking transit—up to a couple of miles Private vehicles will not be a viable transportation option Public transportation routes and schedules will be vastly altered for efficiency and capacity Continue to check WorldMeeting2015.org for transportation updates and sign up to receive the Papal Visit Playbook, a guide for residents and visitors to navigate Center City neighborhoods during the event.
