Method and apparatus for generating realistic samples of public transportation usage to improve the operability of a public transportation system. Constraints can be expressed as a group of origin-destination-time triples. A trip (or trips) can then be assigned to each triple among the group of origin-destination-time triples while ignoring capacity constraints. A Metropolis-Hasting class sampling technique can then be applied with respect to the trip beginning with the origin-destination-time triples to generate a realistic sample of public transportation usage based on the aforementioned constraints in the form of target probability distributions and/or target probability densities, thereby improving the public transportation system by taking into account the generated realistic sample of public transportation usage.
