DVRPC staff identified a network of 55 regionally significant intermodal passenger terminals in the Delaware Valley Region. The network consists of airports, train and bus stations, and park-and-ride lots. Staff subsequently developed a systematic phased work program for evaluating passenger transfer conditions at 38 locations. Ultimately, the fourth and final phase will prepare an action plan to improve access and circulation conditions at a selected subset of these. This report represents the first phase of the work program and summarizes evaluations at 20 sites, including four PATCO stations, 13 SEPTA regional rail stations, and three park-and-ride lots. The data collection effort provides: aerial photographs of the terminal area, inventories of station amenities including parking availability and interconnecting modes, and commuter parking shed maps for each facility. Conditions for each passenger terminal are summarized on fact sheets contained in the Appendix.

The report is intended to be a working document to elicit participation from the member governments and agencies. Preliminary recommendations of the Phase I report indicate that long term parking deficiencies will exist Lindenwold, Jenkintown, Media and Elwyn stations. These may serve as candidates for consideration in Phase IV.
