Then about 20 minutes later in the meeting, Leslie Richards talked about cutting a fifth of service and raising fares by 30%

"Safe, clean, on-time transportation has always been Pat's mantra" That's an actual quote that was said in the meeting.

SEPTA Board bout to vote to cut like half of it's busses, but not before giving a half hour dedication to Pat Deon.

The Bus Revolution is being tabled to another meeting in two weeks.

A lack of in-person outreach from @SEPTA has led to low rider awareness of coming Bus Revolution changes, says @phillyTRU:

Last night, we spoke about the murder of Eddie Irizarry with @newjawn, @SEPTA's Bus Revolution with @phillyTRU, and the statewide education listening tour with @RepHarris. Missed it? Watch anytime on YouTube: youtube.com/live/cKEqAkkuf…

This Wednesday at 6: 📌 State Representative @RepHarris previews his education listening tour 📌 @newsjawn reports on the Eddie Irizarry case 📌 @phillyTRU shares their thoughts on @SEPTA's Bus Revolution Tune in via WPPM 106.5, Xfinity 66, FiOS 29, or @PhillyCAM!

It's Lance!

Riders who came to the Bus Revolution meeting on time, are being turned away because there's "not enough time for them to testify", yet @SEPTAPHILLY is currently giving past their allotted time with their standard PR script.

What's the point of SEPTA's stabilization fund? "They plan to fail," reports @LHaver2 ➡️

@afscme33 @PHLafscmeDC47 City workers who want a free transit pass can pick up a SEPTA Key Card on: 🚍 Tues, July 25 from noon – 4pm: MSB 16th Floor, Conference Rooms XYZ 🚍 Wed, July 26 from 9am – 1pm: MSB, Conference Rooms XYZ 🚍 Thurs, July 27 from 9am - 1pm: Pelbano Rec Center, 8101 Bustleton Ave

Most all City of Philadelphia workers will get free, "anywhere" transit passes beginning September 🎉🚍🎉 Some labor agreements are pending, but both @afscme33 and @PHLafscmeDC47 members will get the free transit passes

@smoov22_sonic @afscme33 @PHLafscmeDC47 That's right

@phillyTRU @afscme33 @PHLafscmeDC47

An in-depth look at this year's SEPTA budget, from @HallMonitorWPPM hallmonitor.org/septas-2024-bu…

SEPTA's Hearing Examiner wrote only 3 pages to justify a $1.69 billion budget. She hid the fact that SEPTA is hiding over $400 million in a 'fund'. Perhaps the money could be used to improve service and make it safer?

@SEPTA_SOCIAL what's this?

Free rides while the turnstiles are busted

Reminder for city workers: Remember to cancel your SEPTA commuter benefit by July 5 if you want the new free SEPTA pass participant.wageworks.com/Home.aspx

Another big win is free transit passes for many city workers. City workers with the current commuter benefit should cancel their September pass by July 5. Details to come about how to sign up for the free pass

A big win for Philly transit riders in the budget passed by @PHLCouncil yesterday– $31M for free transit for low income riders
