Location

Frankford Transit Center is a transportation terminal in the Frankford section of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. It was once known as the Bridge-Pratt station before a complete reconstruction in 2003. Frankford Transit Center is the last stop for SEPTA Metro L trains before heading westbound for 69th Street Transit Center.

Overview

Besides being the depot and terminus for many bus routes, it is the eastern terminus of the L, a subway-elevated rapid transit line run by SEPTA. The L begins at 69th Street Transit Center just west of the Philadelphia city line in Upper Darby Township, after which it runs mostly over and under Philadelphia streets to its terminus at the Frankford Transit Center.
