Two observations.

1) We need to think outside of the box.

2) We need to redefine what public transportation means. I would classify Uber/Lyft and dockless bikes/escooters as public transportation, at least from a city planning perspective.

Urban planning is the most important factor. Density of buildings and people is essential to how desirable a mass transit system is to potential riders and how economically viable it is.
