LeeTran will provide free public transportation to the state’s Disaster Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program event happening 7 a.m.- 5 p.m. Dec. 13-15 at the Lee Civic Center, 11831 Bayshore Road, North Fort Myers.

More information is available online 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 and Merchants Crossing. 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.
  • 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.
