This report explores the feasibility of several specific transit connections proposed by DVRPC's Regional Citizens Committee (RCC). Six different potential services were examined: extending New Jersey Transit buses that currently terminate in Center City to 30th Street Station; connecting the PATCO terminus at 15th/16th and Locust to 30th Street Station; providing service from the Frankford Transportation Center in Philadelphia to the Palmyra Station on the Riverline via an extension of SEPTA Route 8; extending NJ Transit Route 413 from its current terminus at Burlington Station to the Bristol Station on SEPTA's R7 Trenton line; providing the Trenton-New Hope corridor with service; and establishing a Center City/Chester City shuttle to the Pureland Industrial Complex in Logan Township, Gloucester County. Each project was analyzed by estimating the costs and benefits for the proposed service.Geographic Area Covered: Bucks County, Burlington County, City of Philadelphia, Gloucester County, Mercer County
