L Trains Bypassing 11th St Station

11^th St Station and 11^th St concourse is closed to the public and trains are bypassing the station. Riders can board or exit at 13^th St, which is wheelchair accessible. 

To increase accessibility across our Metro network, crews are performing renovations at 11^th St Station to fast-track elevator construction and station renovations. The work will result in a better experience for SEPTA riders of any ability who utilize 11^th St Station.

When the station reopens in August 2027, the remaining construction work will cause minimal disruption to riders.

The typical duration for similar projects is approximately 35 months. Bypassing the station for 12 continuous months is expected to reduce the project duration by at least 10 months and save up to $3 million. Read the full 11th St Accessibility Project Press Release for more information.
