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.
