<p class="MsoNormal">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am reaching out to you on behalf of the SEPTA New Bus Network Service Planning Team.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are nearly ready to introduce SEPTA’s <b>New Bus Network</b>: a bold, systemwide upgrade to bus service in the Southeastern Pennsylvania region. With more frequent service, clearer routes, and better connections, it’s designed to make
everyday trips faster, easier, and more reliable – starting in August 2026. To share our plans, SEPTA will hold a series of meetings and events through April in advance of Annual Service Plan (ASP) public hearings on April 15, 2026, where the timing of the
New Bus Network changes for Fiscal Year 2027 will be considered. A full list of upcoming events can be found on <a href="https://wwww.septa.org/initiatives/bus/and">septa.org/bus</a><o:p></o:p></p>
