SEPTA is preparing to welcome more people back to the system next month – and will offer a big discount on weekly passes to help entice them to come on board.
Starting the week of Sept. 13, and continuing the weeks of Sept. 20 and 27, customers can get a 25 percent discount on all weekly TransPasses and TrailPasses. TransPasses are valid for travel on Transit modes, including all buses, trolleys, and subways. TrailPasses can be used on Regional Rail and on Transit.
“This promotion gives us an opportunity to show new and returning riders that SEPTA is the affordable, convenient, and safe way to go to work, medical appointments, entertainment, and other destinations,” said SEPTA General Manager and CEO Leslie S. Richards. “We also want to show our appreciation for customers who have counted on SEPTA throughout the pandemic.”
While this promotion doesn’t start until Sept. 13, SEPTA is announcing it early so that customers who normally purchase monthly passes can decide whether they want to switch to weekly passes for September. Weekly passes are sold starting on Wednesday of the previous week through Tuesday of the valid week, and they are good for travel between 12:01 am Monday and 2 am the following Monday.
Here are the weekly pass discounts that will be available for riders starting the week of Sept. 13:
| Weekly Pass | Regular Price | Sale Price | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| TransPass | $25.50 | $19 | $6.50 |
| TrailPass – Zone 1 | $28.25 | $21 | $7.25 |
| TrailPass – Zone 2 | $39 | $29 | $10 |
| TrailPass – Zone 3 | $47 | $35 | $12 |
| TrailPass – Anywhere | $55.75 | $42 | $13.75 |
| TrailPass – Cross County | $30.75 | $23 | $7.75 |
Customers can load discounted weekly passes through all sales venues including SEPTA Sales Offices, station fare kiosks, and online at septakey.org. Customers who need a Key Card can purchase one at SEPTA Sales Offices or station kiosks.
SEPTA will soon announce details on other improvements planned for September, including new schedules with additional service on Transit and Regional Rail. SEPTA would also like to remind customers that parking at Regional Rail stations will continue to be free through October, and that any station Sales Offices that have been closed will reopen by the first week in September.
