>..and may take some cars off the road which is a bonus.
The fares will need to be more competitive than they are now.
To give an example:
Most of my relatives live on the edge of the Peak District. It's about a 450 mile round trip to visit them. To do it by public transport means a taxi or bus (yuck) to Basingstoke station. A train to Waterloo. Underground to Kings X. Train to Sheffield. Tram to bus terminus. Bus or Taxi to their house. All carrying an overnight bag. The train fare booked in advance is around £110 off peak. Add on bus and tram fares and I'm looking at around £120 or using taxis probably £180. Door to door around 6hrs and if I want to stay longer or come home early I'm stuffed.
Doing the same journey in the car, working on fuel cost of 130ppl and a conservative 25mpg it will cost me about £110 in fuel so let's call it £150 including running costs. In reality there's always at least two of us travelling so the cost is £75pp. Door to door usually in 4 to 5hrs although I've done it in 3 and a bit.
For a family with kids you're looking at a huge difference in cost and flexibility.
