On Sunday morning, July 30, 2017, the Ben Franklin Bridge will be closed in both directions to all vehicular traffic from 6:30 a.m. to 8 a.m. for the annual Tour de Shore charity bicycle event. The bridge's pedestrian walkway will not be affected by the roadway closure.

PATCO will run a special schedule with enhanced service between 4:50 am and 8 a.m. on Sunday. The enchanced service includes trains with additional cars running every 20 minutes instead of every 30 minutes. For schedule information, visit www.ridepatco.org
