advertisement
Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority plans Labor Day Weekend to finish laboring on its subway-surface trolley Route 36 when it completes a track renewal project that began four months ago.
Crews are replacing 1950s-era track with new continuous welded rails encased in a rubber boot, which is designed to reduce vibration and noise.
During the work, buses conveyed passengers to their destinations. Normal operation is slated to return Sept. 1.
