Baseball fans, who like to avoid the traffic jams before and after the National League Championship Series Game 6 tonight and Game 7 tomorrow evening (if needed), are encouraged to take public transit. Free Park-Ride lots are located next to many of the MetroLink stations in Illinois and Missouri making it convenient to take MetroLink to the Stadium Station or to another nearby station in downtown St. Louis to get to the games. Fans who want to know which MetroLink Park-Ride lot is the closest to their home or work can find out and plan their trips by going to www.metrostlouis.org and using the Trip Planner feature.

Metro will have additional staffing to monitor MetroLink platforms and assist crowds, and will provide extra service before and after the remaining NLCS game(s).

The Bi-State Development Agency/Metro (BSDA/Metro) is the operator of the Metro public transportation system for the St. Louis region, which includes the 87 vehicle, 46-mile MetroLink light rail system; 378 MetroBus vehicle fleet that operates on 75 MetroBus routes; and Metro Call‑A‑Ride, a paratransit fleet of 121 vans.

BSDA/Metro also owns and operates St. Louis Downtown Airport and its surrounding industrial business park, and the Gateway Arch Riverboats, as well as operates the Gateway Arch Revenue Collections Center, the Gateway Arch Transportation System, and the Gateway Arch Parking Facility.
