> " The bus is extremely slow because everyone is going through a couple of tunnels in/out of an island." That's because there's too small of a disincentive for less single passenger vehicle (read: cars) going in via the tunnels. Point is, it's not fair to blame the form of transportation for the lack of bus lanes and other transit / fee snafus. The bus experience could be improved but we continue to favor cars, cars, and cars. In addition, commercial occupancy rates are falling. That is, the market for commuter transportation is falling. I'm not disagreeing with your ends, but I'm not sure there's enough sociopolitical juice to make it happen.
