There is a simple concept that takes this assumption and adds some personal transit logic to this: busses with routes adjusted dynamically that just pick you up wherever you registered.
I first read about this idea in the famous Pattern book by Christopher Alexander written in 1977. It looks like existence of smartphones and availability of real-time traffic data and cheap computing power add some feasibility to this idea.
