108843 | Parkesburg Station Improvements (Parkesburg Borough, PennDOT County)
This project will complete site evaluation and concept development for the station. The project will also focus on ADA compliance and creating a walkway between the north and south side of Parkesburg Station. Improvements at the station will move the Keystone corridor towards full ADA accessibility and provide an improved environment to foster increased ridership.
The Parkesburg Station located in Chester County is a component of the Keystone Corridor high speed rail service between Philadelphia and Harrisburg. Sharing some of the operating characteristics of the Northeast Corridor (NEC) main line, the Amtrak-owned and operated Philadelphia-Harrisburg segment (104 miles) is a mature passenger corridor, with frequent intercity trains (14 round trips per average workday, most of which operate on the NEC beyond Philadelphia to New York from Harrisburg) and SEPTA commuter trains for part of the route between Downingtown and Philadelphia. There are approximately eight Amtrak stops per day at the Parkesburg Station. This line has multiple tracks and full electrification.
