The SEPTA board made the cuts because four of the counties served by the two lines Lehigh, Northampton. Schuylkill and Berks have refused to help subsidize them. As of April 1. unless the counties offer to help SEPTA financially, service will stop on the Quakertown-Bethlehem line to Centre Valley, Hellertown and Bethlehem.
