SEPTA Updates


On June 26, 2025, the SEPTA Board voted to close the transit agency’s recurring operating deficit through significant service reductions and fare increases.

Barring state funding, service cuts and route eliminations are scheduled to take effect starting on August 24, with fare hikes beginning September 1. 

SEPTA has published detailed information on its website to help riders understand how these changes may impact their travel. 

To further support faculty and staff in commuting as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible, we’ve compiled SEPTA’s multiple online resources along with helpful links to Penn’s commuting options at this link
