The clear way of PDCA cycle is not erected, then the ridership is decreasing in many areas. The objectives of this study are to define ideal PDCA cycle and verify the utility of cycle applied to the route bus over a few years in Hidaka City, Saitama Prefecture. In addition to PDCA cycle for improving operation, we identified operating continued PDCA cycle for improving the self PDCA cycle as effective.
