SEPTA announces service changes ahead presidential debate in Old City [Video]

PHILADELPHIA – SEPTA is making some adjustments to its service ahead of the Kamala Harris-Donald Trump presidential debate Tuesday in Old City.

SEPTA sent out a press release Monday highlighting the changes to bus routes and the Market-Frankford Line as the debate will be held at the National Constitution Center located at 6th and Arch Streets at 9 p.m.

Bus route changes

Due to road closures, SEPTA says several of its bus routes will be detoured from their normal routes beginning early Tuesday morning, September 10, through Wednesday morning, September 11.

Due to fencing blocking the sidewalks, buses will not stop at Market Street stops from 5th to 7th Streets in both directions.
