Travellers in Sydney's Inner West can now book a dedicated seat on BRIDJ, an On Demand public transport bus, with micro buses in the region. BRIDJ doesn't always take the same route like a normal bus service so they'll ask you to meet where it's safe to board. They give you walking directions to your pick up location via an app which also takes payments. The BRIDJ technology was born in 2014 in Boston, Massachusetts. It was acquired by Transit Systems, an Australian-based company with experience in running successful bus operations around the world. www.bridj.com
