Good? We need more bus routes
We don't need to make them Uber chartered bus routes.
We need more public transportation, not privatized bus routes
Frankly it doesn't matter. Japan has several private companies operating rail services. Tokyo has several subway systems.
We need more appropriately priced, accessible mass transit. I don't care if it's public or private.
Yea I see this as a net positive. They mention concert venues. This is the perfect use case, I remember so many times struggling to get a bus after a big show because they're packed. This could relieve that. It could increase frequency of pickups on existing routes, it'll cut down on single passenger Ubers.
