SEPTA is expanding the Ardmore Avenue Station on the Norristown High Speed Line in preparation for the crowds that may use the line to attend the 2013 US Open at the Merion Golf Club. This station will accomodate 2 car trains and have improved lighting and shelter facilities. Construction has already started and is expected in end in the spring.
There are talks about erecting a temporary pedestrian bridge to the golf club, but nothing has been finalized yet.
