PHILADELPHIA (January 9, 2024) – The I-95 CAP project near Penns Landing, coupled with upcoming street work on Market Street in Old City, will impact SEPTA customers on eight bus routes starting on Sunday, Jan. 14. These projects require buses to be rerouted to new start and end locations.

The stop changes on bus routes 5, 12, 17, 21, 33, 38, 42, and 44 coincide with the start of the closure of the Chestnut Street Bridge for the I-95 Cap project. With the bridge closing, Chestnut Street traffic will be detoured south on Front Street.

The following table shows new start and end locations for each route, and the corresponding changes to bus stops for customers. These changes start on Jan. 14 and will remain in effect until further notice.

Route	Pre-construction Start/End Locations	New Start/End Locations
5	Front & Market Loop	Start: 2nd & Arch Streets End:   2nd & Market Streets
12	Dock Street (between Columbus Blvd & Front Street)	38th Parallel Place at Spruce Street
17	Penn’s Landing Viaduct	2nd Street near Market Street
21	Penn’s Landing Viaduct	Dock Street (between Columbus Blvd & Front Street)
33	Penn’s Landing Viaduct	5th Street (between Arch & Market Streets)
38	5th Street (between Arch & Market Streets)	5th Street (south of Market St at Ludlow Street)
42	Penn’s Landing Viaduct	38th Parallel Place at Spruce Street
44	5th Street (between Arch & Market Streets)	Front & Market Loop

Bus route 48 will continue to operate its current routing and retain the current start/end location at Front & Market Loop.

More information including detailed maps with new start/end locations for all affected bus routes can be found on SEPTA’s website at https://wwww.septa.org/bulletins/i-95-chestnut-street-bridge-construction-to-affect-penns-landing-bus-routes-effective-january-14/

Please note: SEPTA will closely monitor the progress of this project and evaluate these changes. If needed there may be additional bus stop location changes. Updates will be provided on SEPTA.org.
