Lee County offering free public transportation to state food-assistance event at Lee Civic Center this weekend
LeeTran will provide free public transportation to the state’s Disaster Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program event happening 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Dec. 13-15, at the Lee Civic Center, 11831 Bayshore Road, North Fort Myers. More information is available at MyFLFamilies.com/DSNAP.
All participating buses will be identified with a “D-SNAP” sign and will provide transport to and from the designated pickup points.
The two pickup point locations will be Rosa Parks Transportation Center, 2250 Widman Way, Fort Myers, and Merchants Crossing in North Fort Myers. Departures to the D-SNAP event site will occur from those two locations at the following times: 6:30 a.m., 8 a.m., 9:30 a.m., 11 a.m., 1:30 p.m. and 3 p.m.
It’s important that shuttle-bus riders note the number of the bus they take to the Civic Center, as they will need to ride that same numbered bus to return to the correct pickup point.
Shuttle riders can call LeeTran customer service at 239-533-8726 to check the status of a D-SNAP vehicle.
