<br/><br/> The objective of this research is to develop a methodology for improving bus transit planning using spatial multi criteria analysis and GIS based on multi criteria. Criteria considered are selected using two main perspectives; serving places with high trip generation rates and promoting Public Transport. The new developed methodology introduces firstly, Transit Suitability Tool that creates transit suitability map [TSM]. Secondly, roads network model that enables routing according to shortest or optimized path based on cells cost of TSM
