By exploring the data from four big information sources in bus system operation, services, safety, and maintenance, the paper introduces the development of a big-data-integrated analyzing system that can strengthen the capability of data analysis and simulation, transform the traditional coarse management style into the refined digitalized management and decision-making process. The paper demonstrates that how to enhance transfer serviceability between bus and rail transit through optimizing the bus networks along rail transit lines, and increasing or renovating bus stops. Focusing on arterial express bus and community bus lines, a multi-level bus network is established to promote effective and convenient travel of residents. These techniques are helpful in improving the quality of bus travel and increase the attractiveness of bus service.
