Small cities, the critical nodes connecting urban and rural areas, are experiencing rapid urbanization and mobilization. However, due to limited resources, it is insufficient to solely depend on the highway system and personal vehicles to satisfy transportation demand. Given this, research and development of public transportation systems becomes necessary. This research focuses on nine typical small cities and analyzes the current situations to understand common problems of small city bus systems. The main results are as follows: the bus ownership can’t reach the requirement of the specification. The severe lack of bus lines and unreasonable network structures lead to many bus blind areas. The bus stop coverage rate is less than specification requirement. For the above reasons, the bus operation is in poor condition. Finally, the suggestions about the future development of the small city public transport are proposed.
