Overnight Weekday/Owl Service Pilot Extended

Current weekday overnight schedule remains unchanged as pilot continues through August 2026

PATCO's Phase 2 Overnight Weekday (Owl Service) pilot, originally scheduled to conclude in March 2026, has been extended through August 2026.

Under this pilot, stations close and trains do not operate between 12:00 a.m. and 4:30 a.m., Monday through Friday, allowing crews dedicated time for systemwide maintenance, cleaning, and infrastructure work. The last train each weeknight departs at 11:30 p.m., with service resuming at 4:30 a.m. All stations and concourse areas are closed during this time. Weekend overnight service remains unchanged.

The current schedule, effective December 1, 2025, will remain in place with no changes until further notice.

PATCO will continue monitoring ridership, operating needs, and system conditions during the extended pilot period. Service may be adjusted as needed to support major regional events or operational requirements.
