In China, people are more familiar with traffic congestion, but people have a relatively superficial understanding of public transport congestion. The insufficient current study of public transport congestion is firstly showed through the literatures, and then the importance of paying attention to and solving public transport congestion is discussed. After that, the understandings on public transport congestion in the literatures are introduced in detail. Then, the congestion problems and their management are analyzed from the aspects of ground public transport, rail transit and so on. To solve the problem of traffic congestion, the first is to solve the problem of public transport congestion, in which the problem of ground bus congestion is the core.
