Public transportation route?

Submitted by OldCoaly69 t3_ydn343 in philadelphia

Anyone know the easiest way to get from Manayunk to Fishtown? I’m still relatively new here and it’s annoying just clicking through and checking the different bus routes on the SEPTA website

Regional Rail to Jefferson, transfer to the El

Use the transit app to map out a route. When I’ve done this (from Roxborough), I’ve taken the 9 or 27 bus to Center City, then switched to the MFL to get to Fishtown. Depending on the time of day, it can take ~1.5 hours.

Edit to add: If you’re close to a regional rail station that would be faster than a bus. Both the 9 and 27 go on 76 and can get stuck in traffic.

1.5 hrs is a bit excessive imo. Take the 9 to the MFL. You're on 76 for no more than 30-45min even in traffic and then another 15 give or take on the MFL.

I recommend the City Mapper or Tranist app over Google navigation. My guess would be train to Suburban transfer to the EL, or bus 61 to the 15.
