Shakira's New Jersey concert at MetLife Stadium faces a traffic nightmare amid NJ Transit strike that went into effect at midnight on Friday, May 16.

Whenever, wherever, Shakira’s fans were going to find a way to get to her sold-out concert in New Jersey Thursday night. Some had a smooth and efficient experience taking the bus.

Engineer workers said “enough is enough” after no deal on wage increases could be reached. The strike will have a major impact on the New York City region. Commuters in the New York City and New Jersey area are in for what is likely to be a weekend of increased congestion and more limited transit options after the engineers who run the New Jersey Transit rail system voted to go on strike.
