Plans from the early 2000s to expand the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) Eastwick Regional Rail Station into an Intermodal Center have resurfaced in light of the Philadelphia City Planning Commission's (PCPC) recommendation in its 2016 Lower Southwest District Plan to implement an Eastwick Intermodal Center and of SEPTA's upcoming Trolley Modernization. With Trolley Modernization comes the opportunity to evaluate trolley extension proposals, like the Route 36 trolley to Eastwick Station, and the value they might yield. DVRPC prepared this report for SEPTA and the City of Philadelphia to evaluate what opportunities are created by an Intermodal Facility, at or near Eastwick Station, within the approximately decade-long Trolley Modernization timeframe.Geographic Area Covered: Eastwick neighborhood, Lower Southwest District, City of Philadelphia
Key Words: SEPTA, Eastwick, Extension, Intermodal, station, bus, trolley, rail, Philadelphia International Airport
