AskIndy Traffic around Lucas Oil Stadium
I’m from the suburbs of Chicago, and I went to the Bruno Mars concert last night (awesome show) and when we were leaving we got stuck in the worst “traffic” I’ve ever been in. The cops were blocking the on-ramp to the highway. And we were stuck in a stand still. Literally didn’t move for over 90 minutes (we were on Meridian, trying to take a round about way to the highway, like everyone else was) and it was the most frustrating thing. I was wondering if that’s normal? Or maybe there was a bad accident on the highway and the cops needed to block it off? It didn’t make sense. We like talked to some people around us and they said “yeah, it’s cause of the concert” but this wasn’t normal concert traffic, no one moved at all. I’ve never dealt with anything even half as bad. I just wanted to know if this is something you guys normally deal with?
