OurBus
focuses on “crowd-sourced” bus routes, allowing users to tell the
company where they want a route and when they want to go. They have
dedicated intercity routes, as well as commuter routes. The company now
offers routes between New York City, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Maryland,
Ithaca, Binghamton, and Washington, D.C.
