Abstract A bi-level optimization model of synchronous transfer between bus lines and rural passenger lines was established after analysing the transfer mode. The target of upper optimization is minimum travel time on transfer paths, and the target of lower optimization is maximum bus meeting time at valid transfer stations. A heuristic algorithm was applied to solve the model, and the departure times with synchronous transfer were determined. Case analysis was performed by taking the edge and internal synchronous transfer modes as examples. Results show that the model can realize synchronous transfer between bus lines and rural passenger lines and obtain the satisfied departure times.
