Today's Beyonce and Jay-Z concert will lead to traffic changes
The Vanderbilt football stadium will host the Beyonce/Jay-Z's "On the Run II" tour on Thursday, Aug. 23. The concert is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m.
With the concert being scheduled on a workday, some adjustments in parking and traffic flow are being made to accommodate the influx of workers and concert goers to campus while seeking to limit the impact on University and Medical Center personnel.
Among the expected changes:
- Jess Neely Drive will be closed to westbound traffic only Aug. 18-21, and will be completely closed from 25th Avenue South to Natchez Trace Aug. 22-24.
- Natchez Trace will be closed from Kensington Avenue to Children’s Way Aug. 22-24.
-
VUPD will be assisting with traffic flow to/from the N Lot during the road closures.
-
Medical Center staff members whose vehicles normally remain in the N Lot after 5 p.m. will be asked to park in alternate locations on Aug. 23. These parkers will receive specific information about their parking alternative in the coming weeks.
- Those who park in the 25th Avenue Garage may park there as usual but should be aware that between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. on Aug. 23 the garage and the streets around it will be congested with people coming to campus for the concert.
