We’re celebrating the successful launch of our new Text2Book services for City of Hayward #paratransit (HOP) riders. 72.8% of HOP rideshare riders adopted new #SMS booking technology within 2 months of launch - a major rider experience enhancement and an operationally/financially efficient program for the city. That’s a #WinWin But of course don’t take it from us, here’s Amy Cole-Bloom, Ph.D services manager for the City of Hayward: “Onward’s Text2Book service is reducing transportation barriers to life in our community and will enhance the HOP program management for vulnerable populations.” Congrats to the HOP program and everyone who made this project a success!
