COVID Meets Public Transportation in Philadelphia

How will public transportation in Philadelphia be different after COVID?

  • imposing rider limits
  • marking off seats for social distancing
  • requiring passengers to wear facial coverings
  • leaving its roof hatches aboard buses open for better airflow
  • replacing cloth seats for easier cleaning

What other options may be forth coming:

  • three-day passes geared toward workers without a standard 9-to-5 schedule
  • unlimited free transfers to encourage alternate routes
  • make Regional Rail more accessible
