Is there a break down on their cost per ride? Infra/engineering/marketing/local regulation/etc. ?
Transit costs aren't always the same in all locations
Public transit is supposed to be cheaper than a car...
what if it's $10 or $100 per ride?
at a cost of $4-10 per ride (I read correctly I hope) does it make financial sense for commuters in bay area?
is round-trip bus or train fare into the city higher or lower than $15/day? it seems like if they can just make the car a higher marginal cost per day than transit, that should do a lot.
Is that the metro price of a single ticket or proportional for a 10 trip card or similar?
My guess is that it's more like dollars per ride, on the order of 20-35% cheaper.
$2.994M. Guess I'll just ride my bike then.
Hard to beat those 30 free minutes per ride at ~30€ / year
