20 Mini-Buses

May be part of Web of Public Transportation (16), Local Transport Areas (11).

Conflict

Public transportation must be able to take people from any point to any other point with the metropolitan area.

Resolution

Establish a system of small taxi-like buses, carrying up to six people each, radio-controlled, on call by telephone, able to provide point-to-point service according to the passengers' needs, and supplemented by a computer system which guarantees minimum detours and minimum wait times. Make bus stops for the mini-buses every 600 feet in each direction and equip these bus stops with a phone for dialling a bus.

May contain Parallel Roads (23), Interchange (34), Bus Stop (92).
