They were also doing some ROW work at two other sections of the line - near Drexel Hill and on the ROW within Collingdale Borough.

My mom went to catch the 6:39 AM bus yesterday to find it no longer exsisted. Supervisors and drivers were just as upset saying they had shown up for work that morning and were handed new run assignments. UTU 1594 is looking into it. No paper schedules but it was finally available online. Also changed the routing with no notice. All service via Burmont Road. http://www.septa.com/service/sched/pdfs/preview/102_new20090928.pdf Have to love it. Edited by rider65, Sep 29 2009, 07:50 PM.

There was notice posted on the SEPTA web site, however, I don't believe it was posted in a prominent enough location. Still, it strikes me as odd that the shuttle schedule would change, unless someone reviewed the overall running time operation or something. Edited by ctrabs74, Sep 30 2009, 12:06 AM.

Yeah it wasn't even on the News Page of the website until the morning it took effect. Marshall Road is now closed after Burmont was closed for a week.

Marshall Road is now closed after Burmont was closed for a week. The only hint that there was a schedule change was a link under the calendar of events section on the home page. Unless you're astute enough to look for it, you would miss it. Hence, SEPTA would claim that there was mention of the change on the web site and "technically" be correct. That doesn't mean they went about it in an acceptable manner.
