Uncle Floyd Fan Posted June 24, 2019 Share #1 Posted June 24, 2019 https://transbridgelines.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/End-of-Philadelphia-Service.pdf Trans-Bridge Lines to discontinue Philadelphia Service (a service originally run, in some capacity, by Bieber Tourways) It seems demand for service from the Lehigh Valley to Philadelphia is low and the Commonwealth of PA doesn't care to or is unable to subsidize the bus service. Here is a quote from a local politician in regards to Bieber ceasing all service in 2019 (starting with a ban from the PABT in July 2018)..... ....tate Rep. Gary Day, a Lehigh County Republican who represents part of Berks, including Kutztown, said that New York City should be paying Bieber to help bring people in from underserved areas of Pennsylvania. With a politician like Mr. Day making such an asinine statement, who needs any representatives like him? For all the faults of the MTA, or the complaints of my fellow commuters, at least we have transit services within the NYC metro area. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
