The bus stops themselves are also a large consideration. Depending on the local climate one really needs a rain/wind shelter to make waiting comfortable enough, and it is obviously beneficial to have bins, seats and electronic departure boards. A very enlightened transport network would provide free Wi-Fi, but that might be asking for just a bit too much! All in all, I feel that the 'waiting' phase of catching a bus is often neglected, yet vitally important to the total experience.
- cozzyd 2y agoThe best way to improve the waiting component is to make it shorter, but indeed, most stops should have shelters (and they do, at least most of the ones I use in my city...) Wi-Fi might have made sense years ago, but there is good cell service everywhere.
