Fans attending tonight's clash between no. 22 Texas A&M and no. 23 Louisiana Tech can look forward to a nice bonus courtesy of the City of Shreveport-free shuttle service to the game.

The buses will pick up at Pierre-Bossier Mall beginning at 6:00 p.m. tonight and will periodically travel back and forth to Independence Stadium.

The loading area will be on the north side of Pierre-Bossier Mall by the Food Court and will be clearly marked.

The service is expected to wrap up about 30 minutes after the game ends. Kick-off for the nationally televised contest is 8:00 p.m.

With attendance likely to exceed 40,000 for the much-anticipated football game, Mayor Cedric Glover directed his staff to secure shuttle buses to ease traffic congestion and make the overall game day experience more convenient for fans.
