'I like SEPTA and I like public transit, I just think there needs to be some work done,' said Mercedes Simoncelli of Center City.

The goal is to make the bus network more effective and more useful for more people while addressing the 20% drop in ridership from 2012 to 2019.SEPTA released its latest proposal this week in its ongoing effort to overhaul its bus system.

"I like SEPTA and I like public transit, I just think there needs to be some work done," said Mercedes Simoncelli of Center City. Among the main goals: more frequent service, a more reliable schedule, and getting people further faster.Wendy Pena takes the 17, which in the first draft, was going to be combined with the 33. The updated draft returns this part of the route to its current alignment.

"Effectively what we would be doing is introducing a transfer for people to go four or five blocks. It doesn't make any sense. People use the bus system, particularly in the city, for really short trips. It's really easy to mess up a short trip," said Nemiroff.
