SEPTA undertaking grade-crossing renewal in Delaware County
Written by jrood
February 14, 2001 This month, SEPTA will undertake a grade crossing renewal project along the Media/Elwyn Regional Rail Line temporarily closing local roadways to traffic in Delaware County. On Thursday, August 5, through Tuesday, August 10, Amosland Road will be closed between Franklin and Highland Avenues near the Morton Regional Rail train station. Trains at Moylan-Rose Valley, Wallingford, Swarthmore, and Morton-Rutledge Stations will change boarding location during this time.
On Thursday, August 26,
through Tuesday, August 31, Swarthmore Avenue will be closed between College
Avenue and Dartmouth Avenue, near the Swarthmore Regional Rail train station.
Passengers should look for boarding locations to change between Moylan-Rose
Valley and Morton Station.
The grade-crossing renewal
projects will allow crews to reconstruct the existing grade crossings and
install new concrete crossings for a smoother ride. Roadway detours and signs
indicating alternate passenger platform boarding locations will be posted.
Train times will not be
affected and station parking facilities will remain open.
