Well, in most cases, where I have travelled in the public bus service, I have experienced that the buses are there but some routes, they don't travel much often or they change the bus available to another route.

Its questionable from two ends as sometimes I have noticed that the bus service does not carry enough passengers on a given route where as I get a question of why do they have a bus route in this country. In some cases, if you wait for hours for a bus (which I have experienced too,) you will be wondering what is the said bus service is doing so where there is a time table to be on this station.

Moving on, Qatar bus service has a good point in many places where they come on time to the given stop (or nearly they do so). But the issue here is will the bus pole is enough for someone to stand at the place with the scorched earth situation in the summer?

Next stop, would there be enough routes done towards the areas where expats, whom that cannot afford high priced services of Taxis (private or Public are both highly priced and drives will cheat you.) and are there enough buses provided?

If these questions get answered correctly, I do think that the course of the issue would be changeable.
