SEPTA will limit stops and run express-type rail service on Friday to serve riders who are expected to use public transportation to the Eagles Championship parade.
High-frequency service will operate on the Broad Street Line and Market-Frankford Line, and trips on both lines will be free, thanks to sponsorships from Nike, Duracell and Gran Coramino, a line of tequilas founded by Philadelphia native Kevin Hart.
The parade is scheduled to begin at approximately 11 a.m. on South Broad Street, continue north to City Hall and then onto the Benjamin Franklin Parkway toward the Philadelphia Museum of Art. To better manage crowds and allow for more efficient service, SEPTA will consolidate stops on all rail lines.
Regional Rail will operate inbound-only in the morning and outbound-only after the parade. Fares are required for Regional Rail, and customers must have either a valid Key Card or pre-purchase a special One Day Pass. No Regional Rail passes or tickets can be purchased in-person on Friday.
Regular fares also apply for travel on buses and trolleys — free rides only apply to the Market-Frankford and Broad Street Lines.
Additional details and schedules are available online in the Eagles Parade section of SEPTA’s website.
