ROAD AND RAIL
THE COMMUTE
King of Prussia does not currently have direct rail access. The Norristown High Speed Line terminates at the Norristown Transit Center, not in King of Prussia. An extension of the Norristown High Speed Line into King of Prussia has been proposed and studied. It is a proposal under development with no completion and no timeline. The King of Prussia Transit Center serves as the primary hub for SEPTA bus routes, including Route 125, which provides daily service to and from Center City Philadelphia. The area is bus-served rather than rail-served.
