The Mayor, Greyhound, and City Officals should change the location to a more accomadating milieu. This is unacceptable. Can you imagine when it rains, snow, and get cold.
If you do a quick TH-cam search about Greyhound, you'll find similar situations going on in other cities. They seem to be divesting of large fixed terminal locations. Plus you need a location that can take high-volume bus traffic. It would have been nice if they'd had taken the parking lot at 8th and Market.
@@WALTERBROADDUS Very true Walter. I actually researched Greyhound nationally, and they are selling and closing their properties. I wonder if Greyhound have lost immense monies during Covid and put them in the red.
Thank you the 1st person who spoke the truth nobody is blaming the 76ers for forcing greyhound out of there location and the city is also responsible also the reason there's no bathrooms is the homeless people take advantage and destroy it look what happened to the wawa on 13 th and market or the Starbucks on chestnut Street they closed down because the homeless people would steal and tear up the place and the minute you try to defend your business some idiot wants to record you and scream racism so now your ass is on the street corner like a $5 dollar hooker
Since greyhound was bought out, they have been closing stations all over the country now they’re doing it in the big cities too. It seems they don’t want to pay for facilities for their passengers, so they leave it on the backs of cities to deal with. It’s terrible. I won’t give greyhound dime of my money.
@@cdubois13 also true, frankly, they've been selling off their real estate holdings for years, even before they were bought out by firstgroup several years ago (flix has only owned them for a year or two now). Sad times, indeed.
What part of approve are you talking about? They apparently didn't want to spend money on new construction. And the old property has been bought apparently by the 76ers organization as part of the Arena project.
The new incoming primary mayor candidate is not to improve anything in Philadelphia. Our officials our doing us so wrong and we don’t need a stadium in center city Philadelphia!
Has nothing to do with the 76ers. I'm a former employee of 14.5 years. Greyhound was bought by Flixbus, a German based company, who runs buses without hard real estate. They believe in curbside only. I quit for a reason.
@WALTERBROADDUS they are still here. Just owned by a foreign based company with a different operating model. They will still run the buses(I guess.) But it won't be the way Americans have known it to be. So that's up to yall if that's the service you want. Personally, it works if you are going 5 hours down the road. And that's how they run buses in Europe, where Flix is from. But Greyhound carries cross country passengers, who have been riding for days. So you're hungry, tired and may have to wait for a ride to pick you up. You may want to use a clean bathroom. That particular Greyhound...which offered that...seems to be gone, except a few select places, which will still have a terminal. But overall...what you see is what you get. I seen the writing on the wall as an employee and went about my business. Good luck. That's was my lifelong dream to drive for Greyhound and I did it. So...not my business anymore.
The station in Atlanta is in a dangerous location with all the homeless/addict's outside. Also, Norfolk VA doesn't even have a station anymore. They actually drop/pick up passengers outside a gas station.
Cleveland’s station is so bad that I feel safer in the corner store Chinese restaurant near by. It’s an open air market for dealers and drug induced naps
I dont think it’s the mayor problem. It’s Greyhound. I work fir them at that station for 10 years. They sold the company to other people and they start cutting employees and budget. Now I can see why. They are coping the Chinese buses. That’s how they work you bought the tickets inside and wait outside for the buses. And you can’t be inside waiting. So I can see greyhound are doing the same thing to save money and pay only a few employees. I was supervised and have i least 30 employees each shift. And filbert was a huge terminal and confortable. Unfortunately it’s no more about the customers it’s about them.
That's happening all around the country with the bus services throughout. However with the lingering option of a stadium going in that area you can see why they closed it but tonight have a proper facility speaks volumes in the fact that Philadelphia is not a first-rate city. You go to your buses are very prominent to use to travel and I would say that buses are still used in the US a lot so I'm not certain why a lot of the bus stations throughout the country are doing the link are in odd parts of the city are not sticking to the scheduled service times overall it just horrible in service but it's a cheap waited for a lot of people to travel
It's not just there, here in Salisbury, Maryland, the greyhound pick up is at a really scary park and ride, with nothing around. As a women, i would never stand at this place waiting on greyhound. There is no shelter from weather. No bathrooms and it is a known place for drug deals. Greyhound lost our business. We travel to NYC frequently.
@@zealkaz5137 it's not worth it at all, I wanted to scream, the sick people, the mentally sick people, the scamming people, the desperate people, I was all over it...
A major city without a bus terminal? Philly. Poor old girl can't catch a break!! When I was aa modern office building. It was exciting to leave and return there. How she has fallen!!
If they’re going to move it, They need to put it in a safe area! Omg I hate that some Philadelphia places don’t allow you to go to the bathroom! It’s sad!
Its totally unacceptable and so not necessary for people going through the hassle. Just asked our government after it helped and made possible for Greyhound to be this nation biggest bus service, made them millionaires, took competition Chinese buses sort out of service with regulations… And now, why are you not regulating Greyhound nor practicing what you preach? Where are the better, safest and accommodating services promised to us when tracking down other bus services? Disgusting, people deserve better!!
The city should use the Round house as the new grey hound station. Let the bus pull right into the building that way law enforcement can sort them out, those that can leave on one side and those that stay on the other lol there, how about that
They over pack the greyhounds now, and barley make stops. People vape and it stinks so bad..I couldnt sleep because people was up under me and ect...sick sneezing doing the most imagine east coast west and ect on one bus highly dangerous
Also when I work at that station we have too many homeless sleeping at the terminal and bathrooms. I worked all the shift because was open 24 hours . So I am guessing the city get worse and worse and they don’t want to deal with that. Also the rent it’s probably much higher. And other bus companies running they business like that. In the street pick up. I work there so I know the drama and how cheap the owners are. I suggested take Amtrak. Big station and safer. Greyhound fare price are high now too. And you are not safe. Who are going to wait for 4 am scheduled. Lol I took that scheduled before but was long time ago. When things was better and less scary
THE GERMAN COMPANY THAT BOUGHT GREYHOUND HAS MESSED IT UP SO DAMN BAD - I WILL BE TAKING THE TRAIN FROM NOW ON. THIS GERMAN COMPANY HAS DESTROYED ONE OF OUR MAIN TRANSPORTATIONS! - WHY OUR COUNTRY WOULD ALLOW THIS, IS ONLY ... MONEY ... TO HELL WITH CUSTOMERS!
Looks like a death spiral for Greyhound getting rid of their 24/hr stations leaving people on the street from no shelter or restrooms will surely result in less people taking the bus. This isn't a city government issue- Greyhound is a private company that has clearly decided to make big budget cuts.
Why would people be upset? They want to leave THE WIERD PEOPLE BEHIND. Having drug pushers hanging around terminals. I wonder what else travels through these terminals. Greyhound does not want to pay for your safety. Then?
I just got back from a trip between Montréal, NYC, & Philadelphia. In NYC & Montréal, security closes the terminals overnight except to people with a ticket scheduled to depart in the morning (or overnight). There is way less riff-raff than my 1st time in the NYC terminal in 2008 when it was open 24/7.
Greyhound hasn't been doing so well over the last decade and it's seems to me like they are selling off all of their stations and once that's complete the buses will be next.
I hate this nonsense of, "Oh it's dangerous for women." Like really? I didn't realize us guys were bulletproof. Also, is it really dangerous for women these days? Have you seen the size of women these days? The idea that somehow some guy is going to single-handedly pick up one woman and carry her off is absurd. If said criminal wants to blow out his back and have spinal reconstructive surgery for the next three months, then yeah perhaps. We have women in this nation that occupy a greater volume than The Little Boy that was dropped on Japan.
post about bus stop moving ✅ man takes opportunity to body shame women ✅ yeah, sir i'm gonna need you to scoot over there on the bench with the "strange people." You might not realize it, but YOU are the "men" they are talking about.
That so called "new terminal" is really a hole in the wall. Greyhound should be ashamed of theirselves for treating passengers like they do not matter. I would never ride Greyhound from Philadelphia ever again. Don't give your money to Greyhound until they find better terminal for passengers to wait in.
People aren't understanding... Greyhound is defunct, they sold out to flix bus and for the last ten years or more they've been consolidating all of their Philadelphia facilities 😮 The Philadelphia maintenance yard is now at Butler st in Kensington..they do not care about the travelers 😮
lol really? I took BoltBus back to NY from Philly once and the bus made a nice turn onto Delaware Ave by the casino and it made a stop...turned out that was the bus yard and where the driver was being relieved lol...right in the beginning of the trip too. interesting that they moved it
Why locate in Center City? You need large Street capable of handling bus traffic. You also have connections to nearby public transit with SEPTA and PATCO. At 8th and Market you have the subway station that will take you to the PATCO line, SEPTA Market Frankford EL or Broad street Line Ridge Avenue spur. They also seem to be following a pattern of getting rid of large pieces of Real Estate. They'd rather go follow the competition and not having a large fixed terminal facility. And going to a bus stop only and ticket office. None of their competition have large Depots and waiting areas.
They need to bring the facility back so it can be accessible for anyone who wants the Greyhound And Peter Pan bus lines in Center City Philadelphia I feel bad for them
I have ideas, number is stop voting democrat. They never have solutions to all of the problems they create. Number 2, there needs to be a station for buses like this and someone needs to pay for security for it.
@@Tigerwarhawk well in this case, politics has little to do with the corporate policy of Greyhound. Greyhound is closing and getting rid of terminals Nationwide. So it's not really a Republican or Democrat thing.
This is sad! Greyhound doesn’t care because they want to go curbside. I’m surprised at Peter Pan for not trying to get a better place for their passengers. TAKE THE TRAIN
I promise you, amtrack is actually comparable if not less than greyhound now if you plan 3 weeks in advance or more. Now with all this bs of unsafe facilities and buses literally never showing up, booth workers who could not give a fu*k to help mitigate issues - spending a few more dollars on amtrack seems worth if if you can swing it.
They should have bought a place with accommodations. This sounds terrible. I took the bus from the old terminal. It wasnt great but atleast it had seats, toilets and vending machines.
philadelphia has a long and storied tradition of doing things ass-backwards. The Osage Avenue Move firebombing of an entire city block. Moving a prominent bus terminal which has been there for 1/2 century. Another, of their lesser though still, an ass-backward one.
@@jamesstpatrick8493 For distance under about 1000 km/621 mi, to fly, train, or bus can be a toss-up. For under 500 km/310 mi the train is faster city centre to city centre than flying. The only reason the bus is in this conversation at all is because the US just doesn't have modern rail infrastructure and enough departure times to be a viable optiuon in much of the country. The government subsidises development of only air & roads for passenger travel. They assume everyone flies then rents a car to get around.
The Philly station was shyte imho. Dirty ass terminal, thugs abound, and security sucks ass. Blame Flixbus cause they bought greyhound. 😂 Imho they need to revamp the whole company.

philadelphia has a long and storied tradition of doing things ass-backwards. The Osage Avenue Move firebombing of an entire city block.
Moving a prominent bus terminal which has been there for 1/2 century. Another, of their lesser though still, an ass-backward one.
Wow smh
I stopped using bus the train is far better
Can't get a train to, say, Myrtle Beach, and only 1 train per day to Montréal.
@@IvyANguyen The I'd fly, bus is you will be spending time.. Having more time on your hands is better
@@jamesstpatrick8493 For distance under about 1000 km/621 mi, to fly, train, or bus can be a toss-up. For under 500 km/310 mi the train is faster city centre to city centre than flying. The only reason the bus is in this conversation at all is because the US just doesn't have modern rail infrastructure and enough departure times to be a viable optiuon in much of the country. The government subsidises development of only air & roads for passenger travel. They assume everyone flies then rents a car to get around.
Smh...
Keep voting for those great democrats 👍 👏 !!!!
The Philly station was shyte imho. Dirty ass terminal, thugs abound, and security sucks ass. Blame Flixbus cause they bought greyhound. 😂 Imho they need to revamp the whole company.
That's why I never take greyhound they are the worst service
