Local context

How we work West Philadelphia

West Philadelphia covers a large stretch west of the Schuylkill, from University City out to the Cobbs Creek line, roughly 216,000 people across neighborhoods that range from campus-adjacent to deep residential. Market Street with its trolley portal, Lancaster Avenue, Baltimore Avenue and 52nd Street carry the traffic, and I-76 runs the northern edge along the river. The work here splits three ways: crash and breakdown recovery on the Schuylkill Expressway, residential permit enforcement that spills over from University City, and a steady rate of abandoned and long-parked vehicles that generates city removal calls. Fairmount Park, the Zoo and the Mann Center sit on the northern edge and add event overflow. A towed car goes to a PPA lot; check findmytowedcar.org or call 888-591-3636 first.
