Arrott Transportation Center is an elevated rapid transit station and bus station serving SEPTA's Market–Frankford Line and City Bus routes. It is located at the intersection of Frankford Avenue, Oxford Avenue, Arrott Street, Paul Street, and Margaret Street in the Frankford neighborhood of Northeast Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[1] The terminal was originally known by two separate names, Margaret–Orthodox station for the Market–Frankford Line and Arrott Bus Terminal for bus routes.

SEPTA bus and trackless trolley service include routes 3 (33rd Street./ Cecil B Moore Avenue.-Frankford T.C), 5 (Front St./Market St.-Frankford T.C.), 59 (Arrott T.C.-Castor Ave./Bustleton Ave.), 75 Arrott T.C.-Wayne Junction, 89 (Front St./Dauphin St.), J (Wissahickon Ave./Chelten Ave-Bridesburg), and K East Falls-Arrott T.C.[2]

Arrott Transportation Center is part of the Frankford Elevated section of the line, which began service on November 5, 1922, as Margaret–Orthodox–Arrott station.[3][4][5][6]

Between 1988 and 2003, SEPTA undertook a $493.3 million reconstruction of the Шаблон:Convert Frankford Elevated line adjacent the station.[6] The line had originally been built with track ballast and was replaced with precast sections of deck.[7] Unlike other non-terminal stations on the Frankford El, this station was not immediately reconstructed.

From winter 2016 to winter 2018, SEPTA rebuilt the station platforms, stairways, roof canopies, and lighting at a cost of $39.86 million. Elevators and tactile warning strips were also installed, bringing the station to ADA accessibility requirements.[8][9] During this project, the station was renamed from Margaret–Orthodox to Arrott Transportation Center. It was initially proposed to cost $20 million and be completed from 2011 to 2013.[10] Шаблон:Clear left

The Market–Frankford station entrance is at the west side of the five-way intersection, located between Arrott Street and Oxford Avenue. There is another staircase directly serving the bus berths located on Arrott Street between Frankford Avenue and Griscom Street. The eastbound Market–Frankford platform has two exit-only staircases from the eastbound platform, serving the southeast corners of Overington Street and Frankford Avenue and Margaret Street and Frankford.
