Geographical Information System (GIS) is found to be a multipurpose tool that can be employed for a variety of tasks related to bus transport. In GIS networks provides a set of tools to build network data sets consisting of the features and their attributes necessary to model the flow of resources through the network. GIS can be applied to any service that can be dependent on network like water supply, power, Supply , etc so it could be of great help for transportation engineering. In this dissertation a case study of Vadodara Intra-city bus services (VITCOS) for determining the optimal routes as an objective with the existing transportation system, is studied. During dissertation the secondary and primary data are used. Thematic maps have been prepared for population, election ward traffic volume on network. The congested links have been identified, by volume/ capacity ratio. The shortest route for optimal operation of intra-city bus services have been evaluated.
