This might be rational, actually.
Given the inherent randomness of traffic, it might just make more rational sense to have busses at 'intervals' instead of specific times.
Might make for more throughput.
- rayiner 9y agoThat really only works if your intervals are relatively short, not where they’re 30-60 minutes, as in Wilmington.
- johannes1234321 9y agoTraffic isn't fully random. Rush hour peaks happen about the same time etc. Handling that is an infrastructure and priority question. Given the political will one can build bus lanes and equip buses with a radio system which enables priority on traffic lights. In my hometown (Munich, Germany) this works quite well and most buses see mostly green lights.
