Middletown OKs expanded parking lot
MIDDLETOWN - Council on Monday unanimously granted zoning, subdivision, conditional use and land development approvals needed by SEPTA to proceed with plans to provide 90 more parking spaces at the terminus of its R3 Media/Elwyn regional rail line.
The new parking lot is expected to be developed on the Elwyn Road side of the tracks, on a portion of land SEPTA plans to acquire from the Elwyn facility that serves individuals with disabilities.
The additional spaces are aimed at alleviating an on-going parking problem at the Elwyn station, as is SEPTA's intent to strictly enforce "no parking" restrictions along Elwyn Road. Illegally parked vehicles first will get a warning on their windshield, noted SEPTA attorney Tom Musi, and then repeat offenders will have their vehicle ticketed and towed.
