Just thinking outloud about Boston Transit

How about if we merge Uber + Lyft + MBTA + taxis + all the private buses run by hospitals and businesses - all riders use apps - you either select 'door to door' service or 'bus stop to bus stop' service or 'door to bus stop' service or 'bus stop to door' service - then the computer system matches the rider with the best available options - I could see minivans running up and down Comm Ave at 3 AM every 5 minutes - usually staying right on Comm Ave - sometimes getting off onto a side street to make pickups or dropoffs at a residence - throughput would be sky high
