The Delaware River Port Authority will meet on Wednesday to discuss adding a ADA-accessible bike and pedestrian ramp to the Ben Franklin Bridge, which connects Camden, New Jersey to downtown Philadelphia.

Without the ramp, which was promised by the DRPA in 2010, Philadelphia-bound cyclists must carry their bikes up three flights of stairs before they can ride across the bridge. Those in wheelchairs have no option whatsoever. This is an undue burden on bike commuters and wheelchair users.

The Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia and TSTC are urging bike and accessibility advocates to attend the meeting and let the DRPA know that there should be a ramp on the bridge.
