you can resize programmatically

Solution 1:

        int height = 100;
        int width = 100;
        BitmapDrawable bitmapdraw=(BitmapDrawable)getResources().getDrawable(R.drawable.bus);
        Bitmap b=bitmapdraw.getBitmap();
        Bitmap smallMarker = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(b, width, height, false);

        MarkerOptions marker =   new MarkerOptions()
                .title("Your title")
                .icon(BitmapDescriptorFactory.fromBitmap(smallMarker));
        googleMap.addMarker(marker);

Solution 2:

Simple you need to Change your Image into Small size.
