Preakness Travel Tips
The Baltimore City Department of Transportation recommends using public transportation or carpooling to attend the Preakness festivities.
If you're driving, you'll want to park in a commercial lot and avoid parking in area neighborhoods, as the city plans to strictly enforce parking violations.
Drivers traveling in Northwest Baltimore on Preakness day may experience traffic delays throughout the day, and are encouraged to use the Waze app for live detour navigation.
