The purpose of this study is to improve the bus passenger flow distribution model to more accurately reflect the real world situation. From July 2008 to June 2013, in each season, during peak period and hollow, passenger waiting time was surveyed in Changchun Jinhua and Lanzhou. Six cities, with the number of bus routes ranging from 14 to 153, were included in this study. Experimental data was analyzed applying the wavelet theory and mathematical statistics. In other case studies, the distributing pattern of passengers' waiting time and the limit time of passengers for waiting was researched. These times are interrelated with the actual headway mainly, and are also influenced by the waiting environment and peak period. The conclusion seeks to improve the precision of the bus passenger flow distribution model.
