NJ Transit cancels service to MetLife for Shakira concert amid strike negotiations
- NJ Transit has suspended all bus and train routes to MetLife Stadium on May 15 and 16 in anticipation of a possible rail strike coinciding with Shakira’s scheduled performances.
- The cancellations followed stalled contract negotiations with the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, who represent NJ Transit engineers and threatened to strike Friday.
- Delegates from NJ Transit and the union are set to convene on Monday, May 12, in Washington, D.C., in an effort to break their deadlock and prevent disruption for 350,000 daily commuters.
- The Shakira concerts, held as part of her Las Mujeres Ya U.S. tour, feature multiple special guests and extensive performances including 13 outfit changes over nearly 2.5 hours.
- The service disruption threatens to affect thousands attending the sold-out concerts, while uncertainty remains about how long transit service interruptions might last.
