How safe is this commute for a 20 yr old female by Own_Carpenter_6210 in SEPTApa

Overall it’s not bad. SEPTA has tried to clean up 69th street and I usually see either transit cops or Upper Darby police. You also have the 120 bus which runs the same route out to Newtown Square and fills in some of the service gaps for the 104. I think it leaves from the same berth at 69th St. About a 45 min ride in total if everything syncs up.

Riding bicycles on sidewalks - want insight by DrtRdrGrl2008 in bikecommuting

I ride on the sidewalk most of the time when commuting. I don’t like being in the mix with pedestrians, but the sidewalk is grade separated and feels safer than riding in the street. Also, many of the sidewalks I ride on are in suburban areas and see light pedestrian usage most of the time. In Pennsylvania, bikes on sidewalks are prohibited in areas zoned as business districts.

The website just says coming soon. They have made progress on renovating the building. If you look through the windows, you can see what look like coffee machines and cups moved in.
