PennDOT, City of Philadelphia, SEPTA to Host Open Houses and Online Survey to Reimagine Roosevelt Boulevard

Philadelphia, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT), the City of Philadelphia, and SEPTA are hosting four open houses and releasing an online survey to update the community and to gather feedback on the Boulevard Reimagined Study.

As part of the larger Route for Change program, the study will identify a new roadway design and SEPTA transit service for Roosevelt Boulevard. Project goals include enhancing safety, accessibility, and reliability for all users, including pedestrians, supporting local and regional travel needs, changing land use patterns, and enhancing connectivity and mobility to local communities while promoting economic opportunities. Roadway configuration changes and implementation of high-quality transit service (and potential transit station locations) along Roosevelt Boulevard are critical improvement components necessary to directly address the purpose and needs of the long-term project.

The purpose of the open houses is to seek input from the community on design concepts of various roadway designs and transit service options. Citizens will have the opportunity to circulate among the subject displays to gather information and discuss the different facets of the alternatives with PennDOT's design team and representatives from the City and SEPTA.

The dates and locations for the four upcoming open houses are:

• Saturday, December 14, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM at the Mayfair Community Center at 2990 St. Vincent Street, Philadelphia, PA 19149.

• Monday, December 16, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the Radisson Hotel Philadelphia Northeast at 2400 Old Lincoln Highway, Trevose, PA 19053.

• Wednesday, December 18, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the New Life Philly Church at 425 E. Roosevelt Boulevard, Philadelphia, PA 19120.

• Tuesday, January 7, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the American Heritage Credit Union at 2068 Red Lion Road, Philadelphia, PA 19115.

Additionally, a public online survey will open on Monday, December 9. The survey will contain the same information and feedback questions as the open houses.

If you have questions, need additional information, or have special needs requiring assistance prior to the upcoming open houses, please contact PennDOT Project Manager Alexa Harper at 610-757-1886 or c-alharper@pa.gov.
