Same tickets valid on both, would allow for easy connections and would cover more areas without overstretching resources as you would use the taxis to fill the gaps.
They did that in the West of England between Cityfox Taxis and First, as a "last mile" sort of thing. No idea if it's still a thing as Cityfox were the sorts who'd fiddle sheets.
A lot of taxi drivers around here are self employed and rely on full whack taxi fares to earn a wage no more than bus drivers in some places. So where is the money going to come from without tripling the cost of tickets?
