However, you're right that if you were to phase such improvements in, that rush hour service should be getting more frequency.

totally agree. we don't know if more busses will mean more people ride them, but rush hour service could and should be tweaked. ending rush hour at 6 is silly, add an extra half hour and people decide its worth it to take the bus. When I was taking the train to school, I didn't want to wait for the bus at anderson if I missed it at 5:40, because the next one wouldn't even come til 6:15, might as well drive to the station. if there was a bus even at 6 I would have considered waiting for it (of course, thats also if it was on time, the current teleride system is not reliable enough)
