SEPTA will add extra Broad Street Line service Monday night to help Eagles fans get to Lincoln Financial Field for the team's matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.

The transit agency announced that Sports Express trains will depart from Fern Rock Transit Center every 10 minutes between 6:10 and 7:30 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 26, ahead of the 8:15 p.m. kickoff.

“SEPTA is by far the easiest and most convenient way for fans to get to the Sports Complex in South Philly,” SEPTA General Manager Scott Sauer said in a statement. “It’s a great option if you want to avoid the traffic jams, just leave the driving to us.”

The additional trips will supplement regularly scheduled Broad Street Line trains (now called the B trains), which run every eight minutes or less. All Sports Express trains will serve NRG Station near the South Philadelphia Sports Complex.

Fans can connect to the Broad Street Line from numerous bus routes, and free transfers are available from the Market-Frankford Line and city trolley routes at 15th Street/City Hall, according to SEPTA. The line is also within walking distance of Center City Regional Rail stations and is accessible from the PATCO High Speed Line for riders traveling from South Jersey.

Regular fares will apply for travel to and from the game. Riders can pay using SEPTA Key cards or contactless credit and debit cards, including Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay.
