Winnipeg Blue Bombers advise fans of key game day transportation information, construction on University Crescent

WINNIPEG, MB., August 9, 2022 – The Winnipeg Blue Bombers would like to advise fans of important changes and key information regarding parking and transportation on game days as road work on University Crescent begins.

Fans are strongly encouraged to arrive early to ensure entry to the stadium in time for kickoff and consider alternate methods of transportation including Winnipeg Transit Park & Ride, Blue Bombers Park & Ride, cycling (Bike Valet), walking, and regular Winnipeg Transit routes. With city road work around the stadium on University Crescent, traffic will be limited to two lanes in either direction. Fans are therefore encouraged to check their Waze app for live traffic updates prior to leaving for the stadium.

Parking passes can be pre-purchased online through their Winnipeg Blue Bombers Account Manager, or fans may pay upon arrival at IG Field with cash, debit, credit, Apple Wallet or Google Pay.

Winnipeg Transit Park & Ride: Fans can choose one of the following two locations to access the BLUE Rapid Transit line:

  • Seel Station Park and Ride – 1550 Seel Ave.
  • Clarence Station Park and Ride – 1240 Clarence Ave.

 

The BLUE Rapid Transit line is subject to the regular Winnipeg Transit Fare of $3.10. Fans may pay when boarding the bus. The BLUE Rapid Transit route is a dedicated road for buses only, bypassing regular traffic on the way to the stadium. For more information on the BLUE Rapid Transit line, click here.
