Transit First on the Route 47 Bus

[Andy Sharpe]

Hi all,

This is Andy Sharpe, the Communications Director at the Delaware
Valley Association of Rail Passengers (DVARP). Since mass transit is
such an integral part to sustainability within Philadelphia, I'm going
to query all of you on the city's and SEPTA's "Service Enhancement
Pilot" on the Route 47 bus between South Philadelphia and Center City.
Here's a relatively up-to-date link:

What are your thoughts on the pilot? Do you think it makes riding
transit a more appealing option for those who would otherwise drive or
hail a cab? Finally, would you like to see the changes on the 47 bus
implemented on your local bus route?
