Joint statement from the Board of Bucks County Commissioners:
The Bucks County Commissioners are aware of the proposed cuts to SEPTA service announced this morning. These cuts would come as an enormous blow to thousands of county residents and hundreds of businesses who rely on regional rail and bus service to support their livelihoods.
The negative effects would not be isolated to our region. Southeastern Pennsylvania is the economic engine of the Commonwealth, and mass transit is its lifeblood. The economic consequences of these cuts would be as far reaching as they are devastating.
We hope for a quick resolution that invests in reliable mass transit in our region and throughout the Commonwealth.
