Metro Transit Extends Service for Taylor Swift Concerts in Minneapolis
TL;DR
Metro Transit will extend light-rail and/or bus service after the Taylor Swift concerts in Minneapolis due to expected high demand. About 60,000 people are expected to attend the sold-out shows at U.S. Bank Stadium each night, and the last Green and Blue Line trains leave the stadium station about 11:30, while the 3 ½-hour concert may go longer. The agency cited staffing shortages and said it was offering overtime pay to attract drivers.
