Bus stops will include the Central Campus Transit Center in Ann Arbor, University of Michigan Detroit Center, and for the first time, University of Michigan-Dearborn.
RideHop enables passengers to track - in real time - the progress of their scheduled motorcoaches along the routes to their bus stops.
