Wayne Junction is a gateway for many of SEPTA’s busiest Regional Rail lines with the R1, R2, R3, R5, R7 and R8 passing through the station.

The main goal of the project is to address the significant state of disrepair of the station. This includes historic rehabilitation of sections of the station: platforms, the baggage room building, the waiting room building, and the canopies. ADA compliance issues will also be addressed through the construction of a new high-level platform and increased access to the inbound and outbound platforms. Canopies will be removed and replaced with new ones similar to the original design. If possible, existing parts of the old canopy will be used in the rehabilitation. Elevators and ramps will be installed to provide access to the high-level platforms. Rehabilitation work will address the passenger and baggage tunnels and stairways from Wayne and Germantown Avenues. Concurrently, rail operations will be revised by consolidating the R7 Chestnut Hill East service onto one track adjacent to the west side of the new high-level platform considerably improving safety. Improved amenities and non-interruption in service is important to SEPTA, its patrons, and the community.
