TRAFFIC & ENTRY NOTICE
Due to ongoing construction, the Warner Street closure has resulted in a temporary traffic pattern. Warner Street is closed to all vehicular traffic between the Railroad Tracks and Ostend Street. Between Worcester Street and W. Ostend Street, a shifting one-way pattern is in effect:
- Pre-Game: Northbound traffic only
- Post-Game: Southbound traffic only
Pedestrian Access: A dedicated pedestrian walkway is available on Warner Street. Pedestrians will still be able to navigate the portion of the street between the Railroad Tracks and Ostend Street. We recommend arriving early to navigate these changes and ensure a smooth entry to the stadium.
Due to expected heavy traffic volume, the State Highway Administration encourages fans traveling I-95 North to utilize Exit 53 to approach M&T Bank Stadium. Please DO NOT take Exit 52 from 1-95 or BW Parkway-295 to avoid significant delays.
PEDESTRIAN SAFETY: Use marked crosswalks and sidewalks. Remain aware of traffic and follow public safety directions.
Parent Drop-Off/Pick-Up Area: To help minimize traffic bottlenecks on surrounding roads, all parent and guest drop-offs and pick-ups should take place in Lot 0. This designated area is intended for family and friends providing transportation to and from the concert.
*IMPORTANT:* Gates E, F, & South Gate will not be open for entry. Gate A West is for VIP ticket holders only.
