'''Frankford Transit Center''' is a transportation terminal in the [[Frankford, Philadelphia|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 (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 (SEPTA Metro)|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, Pennsylvania|Upper Darby Township]], after which it runs mostly over and under Philadelphia streets to its terminus at the Frankford Transit Center.
