• Montgomery food safety inspections found medication stored on food prep area, damaged floor tiles (readingeagle.com) — Recent Montgomery County health inspections turned up a mix of minor and more serious issues at several Norristown eateries, including Eli's Bakery Café, Empire Family Restaurant, Popeye's, Mama Venezia, El Gordo Bros, Wendy's, Cynthia's Soul Grille, and others nearby. Violations ranged from blocked handwashing sinks and food stored on floors to temperature problems and missing certified food managers, with some issues corrected immediately and others requiring follow-up and possible legal action.
• Riding SEPTA Right Now: Your No-Nonsense Guide to Detours, Delays, and Getting There Anyway (philadelphiaweekly.com) — If you rely on the Norristown High Speed Line, expect changes: it's now called the M line, with shuttle buses running between Norristown Transit Center and Bridgeport and several stations seeing temporary boarding shifts. The guide also breaks down other SEPTA detours and elevator outages so Norristown riders can plan extra time, check alerts before leaving, and avoid getting stranded by surprise service changes.
