This paper introduces a new bus real-time passenger flow data acquisition method to obtain data such as the passengers' arrival pattern. Using the real-time passenger flow data collected by this method, we put forward a hybrid departure scheduling model for different bus models of the same bus line, which could be solved by a genetic algorithm. Finally, we give an example to verify that the algorithm presented in this paper can figure out the bus schedule which is more suitable for the practical circumstances and solve the timetable compiling problem of the mixture dispatching of different models. Therefore, the data acquisition method and dispatching algorithm presented in this paper is reliable and effective.
