Crews are performing construction work to create an accessibility path between the inbound and outbound platforms at Swarthmore Station. Once the project is complete, all passengers, including those with mobility challenges, will be able to move between the two train platforms more easily and safely.
Project Location and Timing
Swarthmore Station is located at 2 S. Chester Road in Swarthmore, PA. The work takes place under the existing track tunnel located slightly west on the outbound side of the station building.
Work occurs both during the week and on weekends.
The project began on in early November 2025 and will take about nine months to complete.
Impact on Riders
Currently, there is no impact on passenger boarding or Media/Wawa Line service. Riders should check back regularly for work that may cause delays or changes to boarding locations.
Project Details
- Crews will begin setting up equipment to dig out space for future stairwells and ramps.
- A system to support excavation will be installed. This helps enable safe digging practices.
