This book was released on 1981 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We examined the status of the Center City Commuter Connection project, a 1.7 mile, 4-track tunnel, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which will link two separate commuter rail lines currently in operation. This project is primarily financed with a capital assistance grant from the Urban Mass Transportation Administration (UMTA), authorized under section 3 of the Urban Mass Transportation Act of 1964. We found that costs of other related projects not part of the Center City Commuter Connection construction grant had not been determined and, therefore, not considered when the grant was awarded. When these costs are considered, the cost of the project is substantially increased. Further, UMTA and Philadelphia city officials have not assured that all grant conditions have been met. Also, current operating problems in Philadelphia's commuter rail system have led to decreased ridership which if it continues, would make the value of the tunnel questionable. Accordingly, we are making recommendations with the hope that similar problems will not recur on future UMTA grants and to identify ways to maintain ridership so that the investment in the Center City Commuter Connection can provide its full benefits.

Excerpt: The SEPTA Regional Rail Division provides commuter rail service on thirteen branches to over 150 active stations in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and its suburbs. Service on most lines runs from 5:30 AM to midnight. The core of the Regional Rail system is the Center City Commuter Connection composed of three Center City stations in the "tunnel" corridor: the above-ground upper level of 30th Street Station; and the underground Suburban Station; and Market East Station. All trains stop at these Center City stations, and most also stop at Temple University station on the campus of Temple University in North Philadelphia. The 13 branches can be divided into those originally owned and operated by the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) (which would become Penn Central), and those of the Reading Company (RDG). Before the Center City Commuter Connection opened in November 1984, the Pennsylvania Railroad commuter lines and the Reading commuter lines were two completely separate railroads. Each had a separate Center City terminal, with the PRR lines terminating at Suburban Station, while the RDG lines terminated at Reading Terminal. Reading Terminal was replaced by Market East Station, which is part of the Center City Commuter Connection and sits partially under the former Reading Terminal. The Center City Commuter Connection united the two systems by turning the two terminal stations into...

Download or read book Underground Philadelphia written by Harry Kyriakodis and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02-11 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore Philadelphia's relationship with the underground, as old as the city itself, dating back to when Quaker settlers resided in caves alongside the Delaware River more than three hundred years ago. Explore the city under the The City of Brotherly Love, which became a national and world leader in the delivery of water, gas, steam, and electricity during the industrial age. The construction of multiple subway lines within Center City took place during the early twentieth century. An intricate subsurface pedestrian concourse was also developed throughout the downtown area for the city's inhabitants. From Thirtieth Street Station and Reading Terminal to the Commuter Rail Tunnel and transit lines that were never built, Philadelphia's infrastructure history is buried under the earth as much as above. Join authors Harry Kyriakodis and Joel Spivak as they reveal the curious aspects of the Quaker City's underground experience.
