AB One of the main problems in urban areas is the steady growth in car ownership and trafficlevels. Therefore, the main challenge to reach sustainable and liveable cities is focused ona shift of the demand for mobility from cars to collective means of transport. For thispurpose, buses are a key element of the public transport system. This paper presents across-case analysis, from a diagnostic through big data management of the urban busoperation in Oviedo (Spain) and Tangier (Morocco). For this aim, several performanceindicators (KPIs) were estimated for both networks and services. In the evaluation of theservice the KPIs were grouped in five categories considering the consumption of resources(inputs) and the results or production obtained (outputs). Once the KPIs were estimated,they were compared to minimum requirements needed to satisfy demand depending on thecities characteristics (population, cover area, alternative transport systems). Finally, aqualitative comparison of the overall performance of the two networks was done. Resultsshowed that even though at first sight, the service characteristics might seem different:Tangier´s network is made up of 44 lines, with a length of 795 km and a fleet of 192 buses.While Oviedo´s network has 16 lines with an extension of 205.9 km and a fleet of 67 busesthere are several common indicators like the monthly average of users in urban lines thatrounds 125,000 passengers, a capture ratio of 40 persons per bus, and a similar busavailability every 1000 inhabitants (0.22 and 0.30). However, it was possible to observesome gaps in the system functioning, mainly in Tangier´s network which overallperformance is worse than Oviedo´s in most of the analysed aspects.
