Bus bunching system are very popular in public transport. The common bus bunching problem, which is the time delay, is detined as the scheduled of the bus which are not irregular that will affect the number of passengers boarding the bus. This study aims to find the solution of the problem to improve the bus bunching system by using single-server model and multi-server model. These two models are very effective in queuing system because they can ensure the maximum utilization of the bus bunching. Passenger that will board the bus at each of the bus stop are inconstant because of the community people and time. The bus bunching schedule should be more emphasize during peak hour especially on weekdays. Data is taken from the study in Kota Surakarta in Rahmawati (2009).
