Bus signal priority (BSP), as an important part of bus priority theories, aims at providing buses with more time resources. Previous studies indicated that BSP can effectively improve the operation of buses without a significant negative effect on other vehicles. However, most of them focus on how to improve the passing ability of buses at signal interactions and few consider the role of waiting time of bus passengers at downstream bus stations. In view of this, a fuzzy-based BSP model aims at minimizing passenger wait time at downstream stations. Furthermore, the influence of BSP on other vehicles is considered as well. Simulation results reveal that the proposed model can reduce passengers waiting time and travel delay and improve the operation of buses.
