Drexeline Station Bridge Replacement Project
Route 101 Trolley Shuttle Bus Substitution
69th St. Transportation Center to Media
Saturday, February 15th through the end of service Sunday, March 2nd
As part of the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority’s (SEPTA) capital
improvement program, SEPTA will be conducting a bridge rehabilitation project just south
of Drexeline Station on the Route 101.
To complete this project, our employees and contractors will need to shut down the Route
101 Trolley for two weeks beginning with the first train Saturday morning, February
15th through the end of service Sunday, March 2nd.
Throughout this outage, SEPTA shuttle buses will replace all Route 101 Trolleys between
69th Street Transportation Center and end of line Media (Orange Street) Station. Customers
should plan for approximately 15 minutes of additional travel time and look for signage at
stations for bus boarding locations.
SEPTA is committed to providing safe, reliable service to our customers and the communities we serve, and this shuttle bus substitution is necessary to allow SEPTA and third-party forces to
safely remove and replace both tracks and the inbound bridge girders along the Route 101 Trolley Line.
*Route 102 will run as scheduled
