You could go even further and have an app that people use to register for a pick up and the van drives its route stopping at every place on that route where someone has requested a pick up.
Montreal does this vanpooling thing to some extent, though I've never tried it. I only see the areas served marked on the transit maps. I'd suspect that the barrier is dispatching the vans; software does help with that.
