Abstract This research has reviewed the ways to improve the benefits of shortening of transit hours among the benefit items in analysis of economic efficiency. The existing way of calculating the benefits of shortening the transit hours in analysis of economic efficiency has been using O/D in peak to multiply by 365. This method has a problem of not considering the change of traffic according to the month and the day of the week. To improve such problem, the volume of traffics at 361 regular research branches of the chronological statistics of traffic volume was used to analyze the pattern change of traffic volume per day of the week and per month by t-test and cluster analysis. The results show a difference in traffic volume according to the day of the week and the month. In the research example, a supposed O/D and network were used to apply weight per day of the week and per month to see a slight difference with the existing method of calculating benefits of shortening the transit hours. This signifies the necessity to study about the weight to consider the change pattern of traffic volume.
