City to city shuttles and buses seems to be growing. The one I'd been taking from Flagstaff, AZ to Phoenix and back got bought out by a national company called Groome, while FlixBus, Megabus, and OurBus have been adding routes in Arizona (my home state) and Florida (where I live now). In Colorado there is a publicly run bus called Bustang that goes long distances including from Denver to Fort Collins. I also took a publicly run bus from Merced to Yosemite, and its service had recently expanded. There seems to be a lot happening in the space with reduced rates of car ownership [1]. I think the place they're in between got squeezed on both ends, and so did some of their customers, for whom neither UberPool nor city to city shuttles is as good of an option, or an option at all. 1: https://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/demographic-shifts-shaping-future-car-ownership/ https://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/demographic-shif...
