Philly students face major SEPTA shakeup

SEPTA’s looming service cuts could upend the first day of school for thousands of Philly families. With 55,000 students relying on SEPTA to get to class, losing 32 bus routes and seeing 16 more shortened would mean real chaos—especially in the Northeast, where routes like the 88 serve schools like Lincoln and Baldi. If state funding doesn’t come through, expect longer waits, crowded rides, and a 21.5% fare hike. For many, this isn’t just about transit—it’s about making sure kids can get to school safely and on time. How would these changes affect your daily routine or your family? #Transportation #PhillyTransit #SEPTA
