Elevator Installations

Multimillion dollar project will make all PATCO stations fully accessible

Budget: $32 million
Design phase: Completed
Construction phase: Fall 2017
Contractor: A.P. Construction
Duration: 48 months
Completion date: Fall 2022

Upon completion, all 13 PATCO stations will be fully accessible to individuals with disabilities and those using wheelchairs, strollers and bicycles.

Stations receiving elevators:

Haddonfield
Collingswood
Westmont
Ashland
Camden City Hall
12/13th & Locust Street

The project will take place in three phases. The Haddonfield and Collingswood stations will be targeted in the first phase, followed by the Westmont and Ashland stations in the second phase and the Camden City Hall and the 12/13th & Locust Street stations in the third phase.

The four stations targeted in the first and second phases of the project will each receive one elevator, while two elevators will be constructed at the Camden City Hall and the 12/13th & Locust Street stations, one running from street level to the concourse level and a second connecting the concourse to the train platform. Additional concourse extensions, fare gates and work on interior platform stairs and ramps will be required at the Haddonfield, Collingswood, Westmont and Ashland stations.

Construction, made more complex due to the limited size and footprint of the existing stations, will include:

Demolition
Site and landscape clearing
Construction of machine rooms, control rooms and station additions or reconfigurations
Infrastructure upgrades
Utility relocation
Plumbing, mechanical, electrical, structural and fire protection system work
Ticket vending machine installation and relocation
Removal and installation of ornamental ceilings, paint and tile application
Lighting, signage and railing relocation and installation
