On the assumption that you want a bus service that's reliable, and takes people where they [want/need] to go when the [want/need] to go, these issues you list are amongst those that much be tacked by any system. That whether you have buses run in-house by a governmental authority, run under franchises operated by a local authority, running commercially under a regulated system, or as a free-for-all where anyone can just buy a bus and carry passengers.
