Uber announced in a press release that the company will now operate in Benton Harbor, Grand Haven, Holland, Muskegon, New Buffalo, Saugatuck, South Haven and St. Joseph.
According to MLive, James Ondrey, Uber's Michigan general manager, said,
"I am thrilled to announce that Uber is launching in Holland, Muskegon, Grand Haven, South Haven, and Saugatuck. Folks heading to the lake this summer can now use Uber to explore the many amenities the area has to offer, whether it's a brewery or a beach.
