A program benefiting 25,000 low-income residents in Philadelphia could soon come to an end. Zero Fare is a two-year pilot program that gives free SEPTA bus, train, trolley and Regional Rail rides to people who live near the poverty line.
SEPTA said the technology will be a game-changer for its riders, as other cities have reported improved time performance.

In a written statement, SEPTA announced that the new railing will reduce vibrations along the track and allow for smoother rides and driving for trolleys and cars.
