Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA)

Did you know SEPTA has a solar farm in Franklin County, PA called Elk Hill? Elk Hill has a massive 42 MW capacity and produces up to 64 GWh of electricity per year which is enough to offset about 16% of SEPTA’s annual electricity needs! All #SEPTA trains, subways, and trolleys are fully electric so solar helps us keep commutes extra clean. Elk Hill was planted with grazing and pollinator-friendly seed mixes that contain native wildflowers and clover species. Our partners at Lightsource bp are working with a local farmer to graze sheep and manage the vegetation under and around the solar panels. 🐑 Supporting the development of renewable energy in Pennsylvania is an added way we can deepen our positive environmental impact and achieve our sustainability goals. #ISEPTAPHILLY #RideDontDrive #EarthMonth

Last week SEPTA General Manager Scott Sauer recognized several #SEPTA employees who have been instrumental in inspections/repairs for the Silverliner IV Regional Rail fleet and emergency work to the overhead power system in the Trolley Tunnel. Representatives from Overbrook Regional Rail Shop included Maintenance Manager Brandon Grosso and Rail Vehicle Machinist First Class Leo Puccio. Representing those tasked with overhead power work for the trolley network were Maintenance Managers Jerri Farmer and Kevin O’Dowd and Overhead Maintainer First Class Vincent Troisi. Representing staff responsible for extensive monitoring of the trolleys as repairs were made were Maintenance Manager Ali McNeal and Mechanical Repairer First Class Darrin Fullard. These employees are representative of the hundreds of employees that have stepped up to meet the demands of emergency work in recent months. Their skillful work and dedication has been instrumental in what has been a truly unprecedented effort by our workforce. We thank our hard-working colleagues for meeting this challenge and for playing a huge role in the effort to get these services back to full strength. #ISEPTAPHILLY #HowWeRoll

The National Society of Professional Engineers created National Engineers Week in 1951 to call attention to the contribution engineers make to society. It is observed by more than 70 engineering, education, and cultural societies and recognized by more than 50 corporations and government agencies including #SEPTA. This year’s theme “Transform Your Future” not only celebrates the engineering profession but aims to increase public dialogue on the need for engineers and inspire youth through creative and collaborative activities. Engineering can be defined as the use of scientific principles to design and build machines, structures, and other items including bridges, tunnels, roads, vehicles, and buildings. The world (and #publictransportation) wouldn’t be what is today if it wasn’t for the brilliant minds of engineers throughout history. Some famous engineers include Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell, Ada Lovelace, Nikola Tesla, Olive Dennis, and Gustave Eiffel. There are currently more than 200 engineers employed here at SEPTA many of whom started as interns or co-ops. SEPTA offers an array of engineering positions from Civil Engineers to Senior Project Engineers. The Authority offers job stability, a pathway for growth, competitive pay, and great benefits.
