At Northern Arizona Univ. we had a Bus system, it was great, but it is kind of hard to screw up planning a bus system for a uni.

10-12/hr (what they are trying to say is 12/hr) is too much for a car, I see people using this service, but only if they really need it or are in between transportation means.

I used an identical service during my last sabbatical in Boulder Colorado. The service is called eGo Carshare . There is a no-annual fee membership option, and the hourly rates are about half of the WeCar rates . I still have my membership to Carshare for when I go back to Boulder.

CU-Boulder also provides free bus passes for all university staff, students, and faculty. Your university id is your bus pass. Something like that would have a tremendous impact on use of public transportation.
