Thing about schedule of route bus

Last Updated April 20, 2023

Q
I want you to run the route bus until late at night.
A

In general, route buses at night or late at night have few users and labor costs for drivers are high, so it is difficult to secure profitability by increasing or extending flights.
Based on the above points, each bus operator will determine the increase or extension of the route bus.

Q
Since the number of route buses is small, I would like you to increase the number of buses.
A

Route buses are covered by fare revenue from users, so it is currently difficult to increase the number of route buses that do not match the actual usage.
Based on the above points, each bus operator will determine the increase in the number of route buses, but since a significant increase in the number of users is indispensable, active use of those living along the line is necessary.

Q
I want you to increase the number of buses when it's raining.
A

The number and time of route buses are determined by each bus operator through the procedures of the Road Transportation Act, so it is not possible to easily increase or reduce the number of flights.

Q
I want you to do something because the number of route buses has been reduced and it has become inconvenient.
A

Route buses are covered by fare revenue from users, so route buses that do not match the actual usage will be reduced at the discretion of each bus operator.
Undoing the number of route buses will be determined by each bus operator, but since a significant increase in the number of users is indispensable, active use of those living along the line is required.

Q
Since the route bus does not come on time, I want you to be able to understand the status of the delay.
A

There is a bus location system as a service that provides information on route bus operation status (approach, arrival forecast time information, delay, etc.) on bus stops, mobile phones, and the Internet. By being able to grasp the location information of the bus, you can understand the approximate waiting time, so you can make effective use of the time.

Q
Why is the route bus delayed?
A

The main cause of delay in route buses is road congestion. Road congestion is caused by various factors such as seasons, days of the week, weather conditions, road construction and traffic accidents, making it difficult to secure night class/night school for route buses.
Depending on the bus operator, timetables are created according to the actual situation, such as setting the time required during the crowded time zone to longer, but when using a route bus, please go out with plenty of time Thank you.
