Would you prefer This bus coming every 5 mins?



OR

This bus coming every 30 mins



It seems the  2 most important factors to users of buses have been over looked so greatly in Melbourne.

1. Frequency of buses per hour.
2. Operation hours of the bus service.

Think about this from the passengers view rather than the bus operators view. If it costs so much to buy 1 new aircon bus where as you could purchase 4 second hand buses and provide 4 times more service for the cost of one new bus. It makes more sense to use the older buses as you can increase revenue per bus as high frequency bus services have been proven worldwide to attract more passengers per bus than low frequency buses no matter the quality of the buses.

absolutely it all depends upon time constraint.If you have the enough time you can enjoy any bus service.
