🦅🏈 EAGLES Super Bowl Parade Service Plan Released 🏈🦅
The Philadelphia Eagles are Super Bowl Champions and SEPTA is gearing up to take the hundreds of thousands of fans to the parade on Friday, February 14.
To accommodate the crowds expected to travel into Center City to watch the team parade the Lombardi Trophy from Lincoln Financial Field to the celebration at the Philadelphia Museum, SEPTA will be making service adjustments across all modes. Full parade service plan details – including service options, Regional Rail schedules, and fare information – are posted on SEPTA’s website at https://wwww.septa.org/news/super-bowl-parade/ .
Customers are reminded to Plan Ahead * Be Patient * Be Safe
As excited as SEPTA is to serve the fans traveling into the City for the parade, we know the region’s many essential workers, such as hospital staff, rely on SEPTA. Most rail stations that serve major medical institutions will be open throughout the service day. Riders traveling for work should plan for additional travel time and check the SEPTA service plan to make sure they are boarding the correct line.
SERVICE ADJUSTMENTS
SEPTA is consolidating stops on the Market-Frankford and Broad Street Lines and Regional Rail to run express-style service to-and-from Center City Stations.
Market-Frankford Line [L] and Broad Street Line [B]:
The Market-Frankford [L] and Broad Street [B] Lines are the best bets for getting to-and-from the parade route. Thanks to a sponsorship agreement with Gran Coramino tequila, rides will be free on both lines.
Service will run every 6-to-8 minutes starting at approximately 5:00 AM, providing frequent service throughout the day. SEPTA is limiting the number of stations being served during parade service to safely move the large crowds into the city. A service map and list of open stations is posted on the Eagles Super Bowl Parade page.
Regional Rail:
On Regional Rail, SEPTA will operate limited-stop service to and from select outlying stations and Center City Philadelphia. This service plan allows SEPTA to maximize train capacity and manage passenger volume, and it is based on service that proved successful for the Eagles parade in 2018.
In the morning, Regional Rail will run inbound service (to Center City) from approximately 4:30 AM to 10:50 AM (there will be no outbound service during this time). In the afternoon, Regional Rail will operate outbound service (to outlying stations) from approximately 2:00 PM to after 10:30 PM (there will be no inbound service during this time).
A list of stations being served and schedules for each Regional Rail Line are posted on the Eagles Super Bowl Parade page.
Please Note: The Airport Line will operate hourly INBOUND & OUTBOUND service all day between Philadelphia International Airport and William H. Gray III 30th Street Station.
Trolley [T] & [D] and Norristown High Speed Line [M]:
The six (6) City Trolley Routes will serve limited stations to manage passenger volume.
Route 101 & 102 Trolley Routes [D] and the Norristown High Speed Line [M] will be serving all stations; however, operations staff will make adjustments as conditions warrant.
SEPTA Bus:
SEPTA buses will be detoured off and around Broad Street beginning late Thursday evening. Real time information will alco be available on the System Alerts page.
