Uber-Only Drop-Off Zone Near MetLife for NJ World Cup Games

New Jersey officials announced that Uber will be the only for-hire vehicle allowed near MetLife Stadium on World Cup match days, with private cars, unauthorized shuttles, and unlicensed “dollar vans” banned to prevent traffic and security issues. Attendees are urged to use approved transport such as NJ Transit trains or official shuttles, and Uber cars will be directed to the Meadowlands complex. The plan includes hundreds of standby buses and coordination with Amtrak to minimize delays, with police stepping up enforcement to deter non-Uber drop-offs.
