City to Address Congestion on Chestnut Street through engineering and enforcement
"You can't get there from here!" I
used to say that when trying to describe how to get to Glenside or some
other suburban community without easy car access (forget mass
transit!). But now you can pretty accurately say that when trying to get across town. The
City has a plan to address some of the most egregious congestion, on
Chestnut Street, through better curbside management and bus operations,
and in August will work with SEPTA and DVRPC on the Chestnut Street Loading Pilot Project . On July 11, CCRA executive committee members voted to support this Pilot Project. Attached is a flyer concerning the pilot and the letter of support
sent to Chris Puchalsky, PhD, Director of Policy and Strategic Studies,
oTIS. CCRA looks forward to continuing cooperation with oTIS as the
Chestnut Street Congestion is addressed.

Office Closure

Convergence
By Rebecca Rutstein
This summer, a new Mural Arts Philadelphia mural
meditation on the Schuylkill River is soaring above the popular
Schuylkill Banks multi-use trail. Painted directly on the facade of a
building belonging to technology and entertainment company AT&T, the
vibrant geometric design is the first mural by noted Philadelphia
artist Rebecca Rutstein.
It is the first mural from an artist known for her work at the
intersection of art, science, and technology. For more information, click or tap here.
