Analysis of passenger traffic flow is considered to be one the most important stages of planning and construction of the most appropriate route network of public municipal passenger transport. At the same time, a great variety of methods of passenger traffic flow analysis confuses and prevents from a proper choice of the precise methods to conduct a research. The aim of this article is to find and substantiate basic approaches which can help to find a practical set of methods for analysis of passenger traffic flow in particular cities. To achieve this aim the article analyzes basic advantages and disadvantages of each method, their application fields, restrictions which are set by conditions of different populated areas. The article also suggests research and methodological approach to finding the most appropriate methods of passenger traffic flow analysis.
