SEPTA is gearing up for another exciting weekend of Philly sports, including the Phillies home games against the San Diego Padres in the National League Championship Series. The Authority is helping the Philly Phaithful get to the big games this week and weekend by offering extra service on the Broad Street Line.
The Broad Street Line provides convenient service to the South Philadelphia Sports Complex via NRG Station. There is a free transfer to the Broad Street Line from the Market-Frankford Line and City Trolley routes at 15th Street/City Hall, and it is a short walk from Regional Rail stations in Center City. It also connects to bus routes that provide service throughout the region, and it is easily accessible from the PATCO High Speed Line for riders from South Jersey.
SEPTA will also provide Regional Rail service on the Wilmington/Newark Line after the Union’s MLS Cup Eastern Conference Semifinal match on Thursday.
