Tasker-Morris Station Improvements

Overview

The Tasker-Morris Station is located on Broad Street between Tasker and Morris Streets. This underground station is part of the [B] Broad Street Line, which was constructed in the late 1920s.

Tasker-Morris Station serves as a key transportation link, connecting South Philadelphia with the [B] Broad Street Line and multiple important bus routes. As part of SEPTA’s continued commitment to make all stations on the [B] Broad Street Line accessible within the next decade, Tasker-Morris Station has been renovated to make it easier to use and accessible for all. Tasker-Morris Station now has improved accessibility for all SEPTA riders with two new elevators and relocated entrances to make them more accessible.

The station now offers a more accessible and secure environment for all riders, including those with disabilities. The design choices include vandal-resistant materials and maintainable solutions, which ensure long-term durability and ease of operation.
