Kensington community responds to SEPTA closing down Somerset Station
On March 23, Kensington residents, workers, and local leaders gathered at the then closed SEPTA Somerset Station to march up Kensington Avenue in protest of the closure.
The March for Safety and Solutions was organized by several Kensington-based community development corporations, nonprofits, and civic associations, including the New Kensington Community Development Corporation (NKCDC). The group marched from Somerset Station to the next available subway stop, Allegheny Station.
