Mini-Buses

Opening context:
Web of Public Transportation, Local Transport Areas

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.
