To Our Patients, Families and Visitors:
Thank you for choosing Cooper. As you are probably aware, the city of Philadelphia is hosting two large scale events, the World Meeting of Families taking place from September 22 through September 25, 2015, and Pope Francis’ visit on September 26 and September 27, 2015.
As announced by regional authorities, due to security concerns and the large number of visitors expected at these two events, road and bridge closures in the region and revised public transportation schedules will impact travel in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. This will affect travel times to and from Cooper University Hospital.
