Tap into FREE Wi-Fi on over 500 [525 to be exact] SEPTA buses!

Delivering free mobile Wi-Fi access on city buses makes Philadelphia and the surrounding counties a more connected region - improving the commuter experience for hundreds of thousands of riders. 

We plan to enable free Wi-Fi on our entire fleet of buses so that all day, every day - riders can study, shop, scroll, stream, and swipe with ease from their seat.     

Studies show free Wi-Fi on public transportation is widely becoming an appealing tool to attract potential passengers - and therefore it is likely that more people will switch from private vehicles to public transportation when traveling.

In doing so, society as a whole can benefit from free Wi-Fi in terms of sustainability: More public transportation means less air pollution and less traffic congestion.

Furthermore, free Wi-Fi onboard can increase the quality of life of commuters - who could effectively spend their time performing different online activities during their commutes!
