More than 10 years ago, there were direct buses from the city to the countryside, and there were many buses, waiting at most for more than 10 minutes. This is still very convenient for many people who have to go from the countryside to the city every day. And this kind of village bus is not the same as the bus in the city, I don't know if everyone has sat? The interior of the village bus is not so tidy, there is only one door, there are not many seats, and there will be a special conductor to collect money and sit next to the driver. To say, this is also a generation's memory.
But now everyone will also find that today's village buses are getting less and less, and even some sections of the village buses have stopped running, or half an hour to come, waiting for people are very anxious.
In recent years, the roads in the rural areas have been repaired better and better, and the former dirt roads have also been upgraded to cement roads and asphalt roads, and with the development of urbanization, many roads in rural areas have also been widened, and villagers have become more convenient to travel.
It is reasonable to say that the roads in the countryside are much better than before, and it is more convenient to enter and leave the village, so the buses into the village should be more, and it is only right to lead to the inside of the countryside, after all, there are more roads now, and the villagers do not have to go outside the village to get a ride.
In the past, when the road was not good, there were many people taking the village bus, and sometimes a car was full of people, and there was not even a seat, and it was necessary to board several buses in a row to get on it. Now the roads are better, but there are fewer buses into the village. So why are the buses that used to shuttle between urban and rural areas now so neglected that no one is doing it?
First, there are more vehicles now
Now the road into the city in the countryside has been greatly improved, so many farmers who often have to run to the city have also begun to buy transportation for themselves, such as "old man music", electric tricycles and the like, the price is not too high, and it is more convenient to run back and forth.
If you take the urban and rural buses, you still have to spend money every day, and you are worried about missing the train. There is also the fact that the living standards of rural residents have improved, and their children have made money in the city and have started cars, so naturally they do not need to take urban and rural buses.
Second, more peasants have gone to the cities and fewer rural people
The quality of life of rural people has improved, and the traffic problem has been solved. There is also the fact that many rural residents have now moved to the city to settle down, and most of the current rural residents are mostly elderly. The elderly go out less, and in this context, the demand for urban and rural buses has also decreased.
Third, the town bus ride experience is not good
As mentioned above, urban buses are not the same as city buses, and the facilities and internal environment may not be as good as urban buses. For this reason, the experience of riding down is also relatively poor. Because the number of seats is not very large, if there are slightly more people, they all need to stand, and there are more middle-aged and elderly people who often do buses, and the slightly bumpy road sections are very easy to fall.
For various reasons, it is normal that there are fewer town buses now. The main reason is that there are fewer people taking town buses now, the cost is greater than the profit under the dismal business, and the passenger transport company does not make money, so it can only be stopped.
However, there are still town buses that are still in operation, and for some areas where transportation is not yet developed, urban buses are still the most cost-effective and convenient way to travel.
