SEPTA To Open New 9th Street Regional Rail Station in Lansdale on Sunday

All Parking at New Station Will be Free During Lansdale Parking Garage Construction

Riders along SEPTA’s Lansdale/Doylestown Regional Rail Line will have a new station to use, 9th Street Station in Lansdale. The station opens on Sunday, November 15, 2015 and is the authority’s first new railroad station in nearly 20 years.

Beginning Sunday, November 15, 2015, all Lansdale/Doylestown Line trains will operate on a supplemental schedule due to the opening of the 9th Street Station.

The new station, located at 141 West 9th Street is an innovative public-private-partnership between SEPTA, Lansdale Borough, Lansdale Parking Authority and Stoltz Real Estate Partners working together to enhance Regional Rail service access for those who live and work in Montgomery County.

“It is very exciting to be opening a new station, SEPTA’s first in nearly 20 years,” SEPTA General Manager Jeffrey D. Knueppel said. “We are inviting everyone in the area to come and try it.”

SEPTA provided alternate parking at Pennbrook and North Wales stations for Lansdale Station customers who were displaced due to parking garage construction and the opening of the 9th Street Station adds yet another alternative location for people to use. The new station will feature 78 permanent spaces and 125 temporary spaces.

All trains operating between Lansdale and Doylestown Stations will service the new 9th Street Station. The supplemental timetable, effective Sunday November 15, 2015 is available for download at: https://www.septa.org/alert/lan.html
