SEPTA has decided to delay the shutdown of the MF (Blue) Line until next week because parts that are necessary for the construction still haven’t shown up. (Excuses, poor planning, bullshit.)

So instead of the 52nd, 56th, 60th, 63rd, and Milford stations shutting down tonight, they will shut down a week from tonight, on the 19th at 8p; and the shuttle busses will start up.

Am I surprised that there is a delay like this?
Not in the least.
