In this instance, Uber is making public transportation _more_ accessible. They are crowding out people driving from home to a parking lot.
Anyway, the article mentions this is maybe ten to a hundred rides a day. This is either a PR thing or a prototype; time will tell.
- ascagnel_ 10y agoThis is a prototype for Uber in a suburban area where public transit isn't as robust as what you'd get in a city. Summit itself doesn't have much by way of intra-city public transit (just a few bus stops downtown and one at the train station), but is spread out enough that walking or biking isn't a viable option for most residents.
