Editing SEPTA (section)

=== Accessibility ===
All of SEPTA's buses are fully accessible under the requirements of the [[Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990|Americans with Disabilities Act]] (ADA).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Vehicle Accessibility |url=http://www.septa.org/access/vehicle.html |access-date=2022-02-26 |website=SEPTA}}</ref> As of February 2022, about 46% of its subway and commuter rail stations combined are ADA-compliant, which is the second-lowest accessibility rate for rail stops in the country. The [[New York City Subway]], at 28% as of September 2021, has the lowest in the nation.<ref>{{Cite map |author=SEPTA |year=2020 |title=SEPTA Regional Rail & Rail Transit |url=http://www.septa.org/maps/pdf/septa-regional-rail-rail-transit-line-map.pdf |access-date=2022-02-26}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news |last=Sequeira |first=Robbie |date=2021-09-22 |title=Six Bronx Subway Stations Could Be ADA-Accessible Under MTA Proposal |work=[[Bronx Times]] |url=https://www.bxtimes.com/six-bronx-subway-stations-could-be-ada-accessible-under-mta-proposal/}}</ref>

The trolley vehicles are fully inaccessible, except for the PCCIIIs, meaning that no suburban trolley stop can possibly be compliant with the ADA.<ref>{{Cite report |url=https://www.dvrpc.org/Reports/17010.pdf |title=Modern Trolley Station Design Guide: SEPTA Suburban Transit Division, Routes 101 & 102 |last=Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission |date=May 2018 |page=3 |author-link=Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission |access-date=2022-02-26}}</ref> SEPTA was sued successfully over its lack of accessibility back in 2009.<ref>{{Cite court|litigants=Disabled in Action of Pennsylvania v.
