This will mean that Septa serves the majority of Cheltenham Ave from the bottom up to Willow Grove Ave. Wonder if it will use 40ft buses? Edited by Jayayess1190, May 22 2009, 02:41 PM.

I'm a little surprised that it's only going to operated between 0900-1500, but it's a start.

Sorta... it has two stops, but one of them is doesn't have a shelter Maybe the route 72 could sit south of the route 14 stop?

We can think all we want, the bottom line is my Frankford Operators don't know what they are going to do with the 72. SEPTA will figure something out. Chuck

From the link posted at the start of this topic While all-day service would be preferred, it is recommended to initially operate Route 72 daily between the hours of 9 am and 3 pm. This would significantly reduce the route’s operating cost and would provide a good gauge for future ridership potential

Advanced Transit Fan Posts: 794 Group: Members Member #223 Joined: January 1, 2007	Ah, thanks. I missed that. FYI, I used to hate Military Time, too. Just remember this.. 0000 = Midnight 0600 = 6am 1200 = 12pm NOON 1800 = 6pm 2359 = 11:59pm Any time after 1200, just subtract 1200. So, 1300-1200= 1pm.

I still wonder where they are going to berth the 72? http://www2.septa.org/notices/pdf/asp2010_rt72_tariff.pdf

Don't forget also they can have 2 routes share a berth like the 8 and 26The 19 does not run often they can share a berth there. But SEPTA has the final say.
