The one of the main problems of congestion processes at bus stopping points (SP) is that an increase in the number of buses and routes leads to a disruption in the organization of their passage through the SP. The poor organization of bus passage through the SP can lead to the fact that during peak hours, the buses queue can stretch for hundreds of meters. The forming buses into a group can reduce the congestions at the SP and increase their throughput, as a result of the simultaneous arrival and departure of buses from the SPs. In order to check the stated hypothesis, experimental and theoretical studies were carried out on the process of passing buses through the SP “Revolution Sq." on Lenin Ave., Chelyabinsk city, Russia. In this article was found that, when using three buses in one group, the passenger service time at the SP will be reduced in the range of (52-56) %. This result can lead to assert that the buses movement in a group through the SP will increase its capacity by approximately 50% and reducing the possibility of congestion at bus stopping points. Purpose. Reducing the congestion at the bus stopping points by forming groups of buses. Methodology. In the article the observation and comparison methods are used as the analysis methods. Results. The most informative parameters showing some aspects of carrying out the analysis of export operations are received. Practical implications. The diagrams of the main data of experimental studies and theoretical dependences of the dwell time that spent by three buses in one group and three buses arriving one by one at SP “Revolution Sq." are got from the route numbers in the morning and evening.
