Daily News | SEPTA may add bus service to Navy Yard to ease traffic jams
People leave the Navy Yard at rush hour on a Thursday. Driving is slower than biking, one worker said, but it's safer.Philadelphia’s Navy Yard lies at the southernmost edge of the city, a sprawling complex of offices with landscaping and layout that could be mistaken for a high end suburban office park.
There is little SEPTA service, although there is a private shuttle service with two routes paid for by the businesses in the Navy Yard. One goes to Center City and the other to the southernmost stop on the Broad Street Line. SEPTA is working with PIDC on new transportation options for the Navy Yard. Earlier this month, the transit agency sent out surveys to businesses and other stakeholder groups in the area to get a sense of their future workforce requirements, remote work policies, and residential development plans. Responses were due back by Thursday.PIDC is concerned about environmental sustainability and a future of traffic jams as the office park diversifies and grows denser.
