In this paper we consider a procedure for the estimation of origin-destination (O-D) matrices for a multimodal transit network. The structure of urban multimodal transport system is fully analyzed and then a bi-level programming model is established for O-D demand matrices estimation, where the upper-level problem seeks to minimize the sum of error measurements in traffic counts and O-D matrices, while the lower-level problem is to assign a target O-D matrix onto the network according to the user equilibrium principle. And a heuristic algorithm is proposed, finally a numeral example is given which indicates that the solution approach can be applied in practice.
