About “The Hop”
The City of Hoboken is embarking on a new effort to bring community shuttle bus service to within two blocks of almost every resident. When local shuttle bus service is available and convenient, we will all think twice before getting in our cars to drive around town. We’re calling this new mini-transit system “The Hop,” (formerly the CrossTown Shuttle) because you can easily “hop on” and “hop off” at any intersection along the route.
About “The Hop” Logo: Graphic design for the city’s cool new Hop logo was provided pro bono by Susan Newman Design, Inc. Thanks Susan for the generous contribution of your time and energy to making the City of Hoboken better!
