The annual SEPTA Trolley Blitz will begin 10pm Friday, July 12th, and end at 6am Monday, July 29, 2024. Please allow extra time for travel to your appointment and plan your route in advance.
During that time, SEPTA will work around the clock to tackle critical track and power maintenance and upgrades, as well as cleaning, painting, tile replacement and general maintenance work.
Trolleys will not operate in the tunnel at any time during the Blitz. Route 10, Route 34, Route 13, Route 11, and Route 36, will be suspended between 13th Street and 40th Street Portal until 6am Monday, July 29.
Subway-Surface Trolleys will pick up and drop off riders at any bus stop along the diversion routes.
