 Since the end of the 2006 season, there has been a great deal of activity on the grounds of the Meadowlands Sports Complex, home of Giants Stadium. Construction continues on Xanadu, the dining and entertainment center being built adjacent to Continental Airlines Arena, and work on the new rail system is now underway.
The most significant activity is the construction of the new stadium, which will be our home -- and your home -- starting in 2010. The initial phase of the construction has commenced, which will present challenges for all of us.
As a result, we need to implement a number of changes in our parking procedures and traffic patterns, starting with the 2007 football season.
One of the first impacts of the new stadiums construction is that we have lost approximately 5,000 parking spaces on the Meadowlands Sports Complex. To overcome this shortfall and mitigate inconvenience to you, the Giants have committed time and expense to insure that we have an efficient plan in place to allow you to enjoy your day-of-game experience. In this brochure, we will explain our plan, one that emphasizes car pooling, parking permits and off-site parking areas with a shuttle service.
Starting this season, all game day parking on the Meadowlands Sports Complex will be pre-paid, permit parking. If you are operating a vehicle and plan to park at the Complex on game day, you must have a permit to do so. If you do not have a permit, you will be directed to off-site parking areas where a shuttle bus service will be provided to the Sports Complex. One other consequence of the loss of parking spaces is that there will no longer be reserved parking available in parking lots 4 and 18. All ticket holders are strongly encouraged to car pool to help reduce the demand for parking.
Based on our research, we have determined parking permits will be made available for purchase based on the following formula:
Accounts with 1-5 season tickets = 1 parking permit
Accounts with 6-10 season tickets = 2 parking permits
Accounts with 11-15 season tickets = 3 parking permits
Accounts with 16-20 season tickets = 4 parking permits
Accounts with 21-25 season tickets = 5 parking permits
Accounts with 26 or more season tickets = 6 parking permits
The cost for a 2007 season parking permit will be $150, which includes parking permits for two preseason and eight regular season games, $15 per game. A season parking permit will consist of 10 individual parking passes, one for each preseason and regular season game. There will be a limit of six season parking permits for any one account.
With your patience and cooperation and more efficient administration of the parking lots, it is our hope that the reduced number of cars on the Complex on game day will result in a more efficient arrival and departure.
