It's not because our security is stopping them. If they really wanted to they could very easily.
Al qaeda has a history of taking several years to plan an attack. If and when they attack us again they will need or want to top the last attack. Topping 9-11 is going to be a tough job, so it would likely be a chemical attack or a dirty bomb in a major city.

So it's unlikely that we would ever be subject of a small attacks like bus bombings and so on, unless it's was some massive multi bus coordinated bombings.

The only smaller type of attack I could see being worthwhile for them would be an attack on New York's subways. Several small bus type bombings on the Subways could have the effect of 9-11 in means of shutting down the city.
