    Public transit based rideshare is a great way to fill in the gaps of bus and train systems and to push them to fill their own gaps.

    That is what I am hoping for. I don’t know how many times I see an empty bus or would save so much time if I could just get from one local station to another instead of going all the way to a main hub and back. The ride share companies are collecting all this data on where populations really need to go. If we could somehow use them for last leg of distance, route bridges, and filling in lines that are over served.

    I am not sure what exactly the best way to structure this but we do have policy experts so that is there job. Some form of public-private partnership.
