Reply to comment by mmmmyah in How do you feel about access to public transit options in your neighborhood? by North_Emu8686

Would you be more or less likely to use an on demand travel service ( eg. Via) over bus service if there were to be minimal to no wait time? Also, how often do you use on demand travel services like VIA?

Via is almost the same price as a bus and yes if there was minimal wait time, absolutely. Via has a much better app user interface for live tracking your incoming ride (very similar to Uber and Lyft). I saw other comments about bus tracking not being that great - at least 50% of that is the clunky Nj transit app .. when you do finally hit the dozen clicks to figure out the arriving bus the bus live tracking is pretty accurate

If VIA were to cost 2x more than a single bus ride and have minimal to no wait time, would your use of VIA remain the same, increase or decrease?
