H HopSkipDrive, a pioneer in innovative and scalable school transportation solutions for families, school districts, and government agencies, has announced the expansion of its service to Detroit, Michigan. With the launch of services in Detroit, HopSkipDrive now has 21 major markets in 12 states and works with over 400 school districts across the country.

HopSkipDrive will collaborate with ten districts in the greater Detroit area. These include Detroit Public Schools Community District, Ferndale Public Schools, Farmington Public Schools, Wayne-Westland Community Schools, and others. Through collaboration, HopSkipDrive hopes to optimise transportation plans and help solve some of the many transportation challenges that schools and families face today.

Addressing the public, Co-founder and CEO of HopSkipDrive Joanna McFarland said, "We are excited to provide safe, dependable school transportation for Detroit-area schools. Mobility entails far more than simply getting children where they need to go. For many children, having access to transportation can mean the difference between struggle and success. We're thrilled to be collaborating with schools and districts to help kids get to school safely and reliably."

Bill Good, Director of Communications and Pupil Services at Ferndale Public Schools, expressed his delight at the launch of HoSkipDrive in Detroit by saying, "I appreciate HopSkipDrive's dedication to providing a cutting-edge school transportation solution. Every day parents rely on school districts to transport their children safely to and from school. Through the smartphone app, HopSkipDrive gives parents and caregivers unprecedented control over their child's daily commute to school. This level of openness fosters a culture of trust among the school, parent, and driver."

HopSkipDrive offers a one-of-a-kind transportation solution that combines sophisticated technology with deep operational expertise to ensure the safety and well-being of all HopSkipDrive platform users.

HopSkipDrive's meticulous approach to safety starts with highly vetted caregivers behind the wheel (dubbed "CareDrivers") and extends to all aspects of the company's operations.
