Tips & Fan Reports
What fans who park here actually do, and what it cost them.
LIRR from Penn Station runs game-day service, faster and more comfortable than the 7 train.
If driving, the Grand Central Parkway eastbound provides the most direct access. Exit at Citi Field.
Post-game traffic is brutal, the Van Wyck backs up for 30+ minutes. Take the 7 train or wait it out.
Take the 7 train. Seriously. The Van Wyck and Grand Central Parkway are always congested.
Rideshare post-game is expensive due to surge pricing and Queens traffic. The 7 train is cheaper and often faster.
