MEDIA SHUTTLE SWARTHMORE SEPTA SERIES
SEPTA is holding a series of open houses at the five affected stations next week to give residents and riders an overview of the project, details on the service interruption, and information on shuttle bus services. The process will reverse outbound, with riders boarding shuttle buses to their ultimate destinations at Swarthmore. Passengers who board the line at the stations beyond Swarthmore - Wallingford, Moylan-Rose Valley, Media and Elwyn - will have to catch shuttle buses at their stations and ride to Swarthmore, where trains will complete the journey into Center City. That will require an 11-week suspension of rail service beyond Swarthmore beginning on Saturday, June 18th, and ending Monday, September 5th. Now that the support piers are in place, it’s time for the actual spans to be installed. Work on the new bridge, which will sit in the same spot as the span it’s replacing, has been progressing for the last year. “No pain, no gain.” This summer, Media/Elwyn Regional Rail Line passengers will have to endure a little pain in order for SEPTA to finally get rid of the poster child for its maintenance and repair backlog, the 121-year-old Crum Creek Viaduct in Delaware County. With the support piers for the new span nearing completion, the Crum Creek Viaduct will be dismantled and replaced starting June 18th.
