Hoping for Some Boots on the Ground - Conshohocken

If you can't spell it, you can't help me ... or probably can't.

Someone I know has to get to the Four Falls Corporate Center via public transit. SEPTA's trip planner sucks.

Anyone know how to actually do this?

I used to work there, eons ago on a temp job, so this got me interested--I don't remember anybody taking SEPTA, but that doesn't mean anything at this late date.

What did you get out of the trip planner? I persuaded it to cough up a stop on the Route 95 bus that doesn't look like it's in the next county. There's also an R6 stop that's farther away.

For what it's worth, when I googled the building, I got the web site for the real estate group that operates it, and for several of their other buildings (but NOT for this one) they tout accessibility to public transit. That omission probably tells you what you need to know.

Precisely my problem. I also tried websites for several business that seem to be in Four Falls, all of them have driving directions (same canned set probably provided by the property manager), none for public transit. The 95 and 97 have stops at Fayette and 1st and Conshohoken Train Station, which is a scooch closer.

Since I'm less than 10 minutes away, I drove over this afternoon to get a look at the area. There was not one public transit sign near Four Falls, nor did I see one in the Tower Bridge or the Marriott properties, both of which are along Conshohocken State Road as well. The Trip planner thinks that the address I inputted is a lot closer to City Line Avenue, and is therefore useless.

I strongly suspect that the best option is "Sweetie, how's about I pick up up and wait for yah?"
