ICYMI SEPTA will restore service beginning Sunday, September 14. This includes the 32 bus routes that were eliminated, the entirety of the 16 bus routes that were shortened, and special service like the Mann Loop and express trains to the Sports Complex. Approval to use state capital assistance to cover operations is not the long-term funding solution #SEPTA needs but it restores the service our customers and region deserve. https://wwww.septa.org/news/restored-service-schedules/ PS.
