WESTON Wins SEPTA Rebid for Infrastructure Support Services

West Chester, PA - February 8, 2000 - Roy F. Weston, Inc., a leading infrastructure redevelopment firm, today announced the award of a new 3-year contract by the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) in support of SEPTA's infrastructure improvement and expansion program.
