Taylor Swift concert backs up traffic through downtown Blaine

Posted

Taylor Swift is holding the final three concerts of her "Eras" world tour in Vancouver at BC Place stadium, and the ensuing pilgrimage through the Peace Arch border crossing has backed up traffic through Peace Portal Drive into downtown Blaine. 

By 11 a.m. on Friday, December 6, northbound traffic into Canada was already backed up past the final Interstate 5 exit onto D Street downtown Blaine. By 2 p.m., cars had spilled onto Peace Portal Drive, and I-5 was backed up past the Mitchell Avenue overpass, inching towards the truck crossing exit. 

Swift is capping off her two-year long world tour with consecutive shows from Friday, December 6 to Sunday, December 8 in Vancouver. The pop star played six shows in Toronto in November, the only other Canadian shows of her massive, world-spanning tour than began 149 shows ago. 

As of the latest update from WSDOT, border wait times for the Peace Arch crossing are at 50 minutes. For up-to-date traffic and border crossing information, visit wsdot.com/travel/real-time/border-crossings
