Those attending Friday’s UTSA vs. Army football game may want to consider taking public transportation to avoid a traffic nightmare, according to San Antonio officials.

The gridiron showdown will begin at 6 p.m., and the large attendance combined with rush hour traffic is likely to create bumper-to-bumper traffic, not to mention parking woes. As a result, officials are encouraging fans to arrive early or use VIA Metropolitan Transit’s Park & Ride service.

The VIA service will begin shuttling passengers to the Alamodome at 3 p.m. from free parking at the Crossroads pick-up  location, 151 Crossroads Boulevard. Service costs $1.30 each way, with discounts available for students and seniors.

More information is available on the VIA Metropolitan Transit website.
