Based on the analysis method of bus arrival time distribution from the departure station to the bus stop under the impact of an intersection signal, the expected capacity of road traffic near two different types of bus stops, including the curbside stop and the harbor bus stop, is obtained separately by using the proposed method. Also, a variety of factors that impact the actual road traffic capacity near bus stops are analyzed. The results show that the actual capacity of the road segment near the bus stop fluctuates with time, regularly in a cycle style, and the main factors include the departure frequency of the bus, variance of road travel time, the bus's dwelling time at the bus stop and the type of bus stop, all of which affect actual road traffic capacity near the bus stop. The road capacity near the bus stop can be released effectively by some measures, such as adjusting the departure interval times between buses at the terminal, and reforming the type of bus stop, etc.
