SEPTA Regional Rail paper Trailpasses will disappear starting in August - WHYY

The final swipes have come for the 40,000 SEPTA Key card that will go dead on July 31. If you were one of the 39,386 early adopters who picked up a newborn card three years ago and haven’t already spent or moved your balance, this is the time to call the SEPTA Key magicians at Conduent (855-567-3782). Ask to transfer your balance over to a fresh card before the credit vanishes. But old Key cards aren’t the only SEPTA passes passing into obsolescence. Now that weekly and month

Officials excited about Ridge Pike-Main Street revitalization - Phoenixville News

An ambitious agenda brought local officials and state representatives from near and far to Lower Providence Township Building. They heeded the call of state Rep. Joe Webster, D-Montgomery, who hosted what was referred to as a community policy hearing on Revitalizing the Ridge Pike-Main Street Corridor. Webster, who was joined by Policy Committee Chairman Mike Sturla of Lancaster, as well as many state representatives and experts in development, said his goal with what he sai

The Data Driving ATL Toward Car-Free Living - Data-Smart City Solutions

I'm not sure who needs to hear this right now, but if you are stuck in traffic, just remember that you are not alone… But know this, you are the traffic. If you are reading this and live in the US, it is likely you spend about 42 hours per year stuck in traffic. If you live in cities like Los Angeles and commute every day (and I pray for you if you do), its likely you spend twice that amount of time in gridlock. It is also quite likely that you have your own car and drive alo

The Surprisingly High-Stakes Fight Over a Traffic-Taming ‘Digital Twin’ - CityLab

Why are some mobility experts spooked by this plan to develop a data standard that would allow cities to build a real-time traffic control system? Imagine driving through Los Angeles in the year 2040. There’s a mix of self-driving and human-controlled vehicles on Santa Monica Boulevard. A serious collision slows traffic to a crawl. But then a special orchestration of traffic signals flips on, parting the sea of cars for an ambulance to throttle through the streets. This traff

Discussing Safety First For Automated Driving With Aptiv's Karl Iagnemma - Forbes

Safety in the self-driving car realm is a top concern and one that I wanted to discuss with Karl Iagnemma, President of AptivAutonomous Mobility and founder of NuTonomy, when we met recently. We were both at the TechCrunch TC Sessions: Mobility summit in San Jose, California this month, and carved out some riveting moments to collegially chat and engage in an energetic dialogue on the all-important topic of safety of autonomous cars, doing so among the noisy hubbub and frenet

Startups Are Abandoning Suburbs for Cities With Good Transit - CityLab

Startups Are Abandoning Suburbs for Cities With Good Transit - CityLab

A new study finds that new business startups are choosing cities with good public transportation options over the traditional suburban locations. During the late 20th century, startup companies were quintessentially suburban, in standard-issue office parks dubbed “nerdistans.” Think of Silicon Valley, the North Carolina Research Triangle, and the suburbs of Seattle where Microsoft is located. But high-tech startups have become increasingly urban in the past decade or so, grav

Philly has $800K to make Spring Garden the bike path of our dreams but the clock is ticking - PlanPh

Spring Garden Street through Center City may only be 2.1 miles long, but it represents an opportunity for the cycling community — in Philadelphia and across the entire east coast. In 2009, the street was selected through a Center City Greenway Feasibility Study conducted by Pennsylvania Environmental Council as the East Coast Greenway alignment through Philadelphia. As a recognized greenway, the corridor would act as the city’s official east-west trail connection between the
