Abstract
It is important to evaluate bus system development level for public transportation system operations management. In his paper, 22 indicators are selected to establish the evaluation target system of the bus system development level. A new combined evaluation method based on structure entropy weight- matter element analysis is proposed. In this method, structure entropy method can make the weight calculation more objective, matter element analysis can ensure the integrity of the qualitative and quantitative information and easier to operate. Finally, case study of Dalian, after analyzing the particularity of bus system in Dalian, it specifically evaluates the development level of the bus system in Dalian used structure entropy weight - matter element analysis method, and gets the level is “medium”, among all of the indicators, the rating of peak hour load factor is “pass”, then it proposes some reference countermeasures to improve the development level of bus system in Dalian for the evaluation results.
