Mets Traffic Advisory for Saturday


Due to the US Open hosting Arthur Ashe Kids’ Day at the National Tennis Center on Saturday, August 29, the Mets encourage fans and ticket holders planning to attend Saturday’s game vs. the Boston Red Sox to commute to Citi Field via mass transit and arrive early for the game.
 
 The Jackie Robinson Rotunda will open at 2:05 p.m. on Saturday. Only the first 15,000 fans through the gates will receive the free 1986 World Championship Bobblehead.
 
 The 7 Line is the fast, convenient and “green” way to travel to the game. The Mets-Willets Point stop is adjacent to the Jackie Robinson Rotunda.
 
 Direct LIRR service to Citi Field is available from Penn Station, Woodside and all stations on the Port Washington Branch.
 
 Those traveling from Long Island or southern Queens on other branches can reach Citi Field by changing trains at Woodside, just a five-minute ride from the ballpark.
 
 Fans from NYC or New Jersey can board any Port Washington Branch train at Penn Station, which is just a quick 19 minutes away on the LIRR. Citi Field is just 17 minutes from Great Neck and 27 minutes from Port Washington.
