SEPTA Holiday Schedule

from the inbox:

SEPTA is adjusting some services over the upcoming holiday week, in an effort to keep schedules consistent with changes in riders’ needs. Service will also be added where possible for special events, including New Year’s Eve celebrations.

All SEPTA services will be available throughout the holidays, with some modifications between Monday Dec. 24-Tuesday, Jan.1. This is due to expected reductions in ridership as students and some other regular SEPTA customers won’t be headed out for their normal commutes.

SEPTA has launched a special section on its Website with full details on holiday service, including schedules for routes on which service will be adjusted. For details, visit
