    Because nobody in any public transit board has ever implemented such a thing?

    In North Carolina, park and ride busses for the state fair have long been a thing, among a litany of several other examples.

      Just because it’s not a completely new concept doesn’t mean it’s stupid.

      It can bring value even if it’s a small iterative innovation over existing buses.

      I spent way too long ignoring the park and rides at major events. Then I started paying attention and they always had them and it was always so much nicer. No more excessively long walking, no more mpossible traffic getting in and out.

      As long as the event clearly highlights park and ride options, it’s fantastic and has been going on forever. These events pay the bus charter companies to generally provide rides free of charge to the riders.
