    Abstract:

    In this paper,we study how the bus companies to provide real-time bus station information service will influence the passenger travel behavior,and do game research about whether the company will provide the information to the passenger under the four difference situations. This finding will help in designing the trans-portation management policies. The model assumes that users can come to the bus stop or rail station at ran-dom or they can plan their trips. The fraction of users who plan their trips depends on the frequency of service and on the quality of information provided. Based on the analysis the cost of travel,we got the equilibrium of system in the case of fixed demand. Also compares the bus frequency,the number of planning passenger,and the company net profit under different strategies. A numerical example is presented to verify the theoretical re-sults ,which are consistent with classical economics theory. The finding can be helpful the transportation man-agement policies.
