The Hop launches new partnership with MaskUpMKE

The Hop announced on Tuesday, Aug. 18 a new partnership with MaskUpMKE.org to help promote the importance of wearing a mask as the most accessible and effective way for our Milwaukee community to stop the spread of COVID-19.

The coordinated effort is highlighted by a newly-wrapped Hop streetcar that is “Masked Up,” featuring both noses of the vehicle adorned in a standard blue medical mask. It also comes with a commitment to provide free masks to streetcar riders who board without a mask of their own.
 
In addition to the masks on the two ends of the streetcar, a news release says the artwork also features the masked-up faces of Milwaukee citizens, including Milwaukee Municipal Court Judge Derek Mosley, who overcame a battle with COVID-19 earlier this summer.

Masks donated by MaskUpMKE will be available on all five Hop streetcars beginning immediately. All are individually packaged and include instructions for proper usage.
