During a City-Assisted Evacuation, you can use an Evacuspot to catch a ride to the Smoothie King Center. From here, you will be transported out of the city. Evacuspots are in various locations around the New Orleans area, and are represented by a large, steel statue of a waving man. Below is a digital map showing the locations of Evacuspots.
Please note that Evacuspots are not general bus stops. They are utilized only during a mandatory evacuation to evacuate residents to the Smoothie King Center.
A few Evacuspots are specifically designated for senior citizens and others who need special assistance during an evacuation.
