Plantation, Florida – Broward County Transit (BCT) is getting ready to support the Florida Panthers in the upcoming National Hockey League Championship by converting part of its fleet into special Florida Panthers Express Shuttles. Starting from Saturday, June 8, these shuttles will offer dedicated transport services to the Amerant Bank Arena for all Florida Panthers home games scheduled in the series.
Scheduled Shuttle Times
The express shuttles will depart from the Government Center West (GCW) building located at 1 North University Drive in Plantation, specifically from Bus Stop #0906. Departures are scheduled every hour at 5 PM, 6 PM, and 7 PM on each game day, ensuring fans can choose a time that suits them best and arrive before the game starts.
Post-Game Transportation and Fees
After the games, return shuttles to GCW will commence at 10 PM and continue until all passengers are transported back. The ride on the Panthers Express Shuttles will cost the standard $2 bus fare per person, with exact change required. Alternatively, riders can use BCT’s Mobile Ticketing App for convenient payment by phone.
