Project Background

Most frequently-used station on the

Lansdale/Doylestown Line.

Parking is fully-utilized on manyweekdays.

7 mixed-use and residential

developments are planned for LansdaleBorough which will increase ridership

from Lansdale Station.

Development and background

population growth will increase the

demand for parking at Lansdale Station

by 2019.

As a result, SEPTA will construct a parking garage to increase the number of available

spaces. In addition, a pedestrian bridge will be constructed in order to increase

multimodal circulation and support economic development initiatives in the area.

Purpose of the Project

Lansdale Station has the most parking

spaces of any station along the

Lansdale/Doylestown Line. Current average daily boardings (2013)

are 1,396

However, Projected Average DailyWeekday Ridership is expected to

increase to 1,571 due to background

population growth and planneddevelopment.

Origins and Access Survey

A survey was conducted for riders at the

Lansdale Station to determine home origins

and access mode.

(687 distributed; 374 returned)

Data was analyzed to determine where

riders originated and how they reached

the station.

56 municipalities were represented in

the Lansdale commutershed. Results were used to determine how

regional and local growth may affect on

ridership and access modes, as well asfuture parking demand.
