PHL's cell-phone waiting lot

celllot275.jpg

We're off to the races! A reader has posted a comment, asking: When will there be signs on I-95 to the airport's cell-phone lot?


The answer is not for awhile, if ever. I-95 is controlled by PennDOT, which doesn't want to see a lot of signage cluttering up its interstate exit signs. The lot is on Bartram Avenue, also now designated as State Route 291. The portion of Bartram where the lot is situated is parallel to I-95 and north of the intererstate. The way to find it is to follow a series of small signs along the airport's internal roads that say "Cell Phone Lot, Follow Park and Ride."


The signs are not always easy to read or follow. The people who run the airport have promised to revisit the issue of how good -- or bad -- the signs are, and we will follow up with them for a future story, and for posting in this space.
