Taxi vs buses
Recently, there are so much discussed to replace such a public
transport as taxi to the medium bus, with large capacity. How do you
feel about the possibility of such changes?
The main disadvantages of replacing
taxi:
∑ 18,5%
1 Speed of movement, duration of
trip
62%
2 Interval traffic, waiting time 21%
3 Trip comfort 16%
5 Load of bus 3%
4 Maneuverability of bus 5%
«Increasing the duration of the trip, if they would
be on time, then - yes»
«Better trolleybus - the duration of the trip the
same but its environmentally friendly»
«Once in half an
hour, there would be
traffic jams on the
bridge "," Low
maneuverability of
buses»
