SEPTA Starting Work At Warminster Station

WARMINSTER, PA —SEPTA will be regrading the drainage swale along Park Avenue near Warminster Station as part of ongoing stormwater improvements in the area, State Rep. Brian Munroe said.

SEPTA is performing the work on Tuesday and Wednesday. Munroe said that SEPTA personnel has had conversations with some neighboring residents.

Because the improvement area is on an active track, the work must be performed overnight when SEPTA service is not running, Munroe said.

Crews will begin mobilizing around 11:30 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday night, and work is expected to conclude around 4 a.m. on Wednesday and Thursday.

SEPTA is re-grading the drainage swale along the track right-of-way parallel to Park Avenue.

The work follows the recent clearing of sediment in the drainage pipe in the culvert. Combined, these efforts are intended to improve stormwater flow and minimize ponding of water along Park Avenue.
