HOMESTEAD, Fla. (AP) - Race fans attending NASCAR events in Homestead this week will have a free ride to nearby national parks.
The Homestead National Parks Trolley will provide round-trip transportation Thursday from the Homestead-Miami Speedway’s RV parking lot to Biscayne and Everglades national parks.
The trolley will depart to Biscayne National Park at 10:30 a.m. and 1:20 p.m. and to Everglades National Park at 9:00 a.m. and 1:54 p.m. Entry to both national parks also is free for the trolley riders.
Homestead Vice Mayor Stephen Shelley says he hopes the thousands of families who attend the race events “get a taste of something they normally wouldn’t get to see.”
The trolley service linking downtown Homestead with the parks began in January. Two trolleys will operate on weekends from Nov. 22 through April 26.
