Shared on demand services provide better, cheaper access than buses according to a recent study. Suggests 8 to 16 passenger taxis replace buses.

Replace long distance routes- maybe. Replace high frequency arterial lines, no. Replace short distance circulators and shuttles, like the Braves Shuttle bus? No way.

Right tool for the right job, as with anything. Every transportation and transit mode has its place.

I do think we will be seeing a lot of change in surface transportation options in the coming years but I think there will still be some role for "busses".
