"Funding" isn't the issue. You want the bus system to be good enough that people want to use it. I'm sure there are several dozen people who live within 2 miles of where I live that work within 2 miles of where I work. Batch us into groups by pickup time, dispatch small buses to my neighborhood to pick us up, sending texts to give estimates of arrival, drive us to drop off spots. Make the bus climate controlled and with power adapters and WiFi so we can work or play or read while this is happening. I'd take that now.
