Like the Silverliner V cars. Their implementation has been delayed, so expect plenty more updates in the New Year. Also topping a year in transit news are SEPTA’s smart fare system and the parklets that popped up in West Philly.
And of course, funding was big news — for highways, bus stations, regional rail improvements and Amtrak.
