Create a web-based service to coordinate transportation
Eco Transit: Need a ride anywhere? Go online and post your starting and ending point, or use you phone. Eco Transit will arrange the pick-up and drop-off using the municpal shuttle system (or private cars). The system dynamically figues the routes and accepts payments!
Q1: Why would this be better than a fixed route bus system?
Idea Description
Ever want to take the bus but didn't have the two hours it takes to get accross town?
Hate walking to and waiting at the bus stop?
Wonder why huge buses frequently roam around town empty?
Eco Transit is the solution. Post your ride need online with Eco Transit or call them and a municipal shuttle will pick you up where you are and take you where you need to be, fast!
Eco Transit dynamically and automatically determines where the shuttles need to go next to pick-up or drop-off. Everyone gets to their destinations in the least amount of time saving the most gas and providing the best service.
A lot of people are going to be wondering why they even own a car

I love the fact that this idea is easier on the environment - and municipality pocket books - than running several buses all day long. I sincerely hope Eco Transit wins the prize!
