To enhance the utilization efficiency and accessibility of curb-lane bus stops and minimize the impacts on dynamic traffic flow, traffic delay models based on traffic flow wave theory was proposed after investigating and analyzing four curb-bus stops in Nanjing. Those models were used to describe traffic delay in the condition of no-signalized intersections flow, dissipated flow in green times, dissipated flow in a signal cycle, and interactive flow in next signal cycle. Practical examples of vehicle arrivals show that the vehicle arriving characteristic is continuous and interacted on urban roadway affected by signalized intersections flow. A compressional dilatational wave was found near curb-lane bus stops, which has three states of consciousness, expandability, and dissipation. The proposed approach can be applied to describe the delay of traffic delay effectively.
