In response to Matthea Smith objections to my bus
plan:
I think parents with small children were accounted for
in the "other special exceptions" clause that I made.
Meaning that, parents with small children would
warrant a special stop if they requested one, or
flagged a bus down.
If we seperated bus stops by four blocks, the absolute
maximum possible addition to any trip would be two
blocks. I can illustrate this. Firstly, the traveller
goes to the intersection where the nearest bus stop
once was. Secondly, the traveller chooses the nearest
bus stop. The nearest bus stop would be where the
person is currently standing; if they where facing the
street, one to two blocks to their left, or one to two
blocks to their right. Thirdly, the traveller would
walk the extra distance, if there was any. Not too
much to ask.
If this is too radical, perhaps the bus company could
have special rush hour rules that implemented this.
