SEPTA launches open data portal

July 5, 2023
The online tool supports the agency’s strategic plan, SEPTA Forward, and promotes transparency.

Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) has launched its Open Data Portal – a catalog of financial, ridership, mapping and other useful data on the authority’s website.

The portal features the new Ridership Recovery Dashboard, which shows the ridership and service levels for all of SEPTA’s modes relative to their pre-pandemic baselines.

“We are excited to share this valuable tool with our employees, riders and community partners,” said SEPTA General Manager and CEO Leslie S. Richards. “This new portal will help foster transparency, accountability and build trust with the communities we serve.”

The Open Data Portal supports SEPTA Forward, the authority’s strategic plan by making data publicly available to unleash the potential for innovative ideas and solutions from across the region.

SEPTA is committed to growing the catalog of data over time and welcomes feedback from the public.

The Open Data Portal and The Ridership Recovery Dashboard can be found on SEPTA's website.
