It is an important point of difference to train and bus stations/stops as to whether they have a dedicated Park and Ride carpark or not. It is something I would find useful if I was searching for station POI's. It's not just whether parking is nearby, but whether it's dedicated to commuters - not

Hi Stephen. If the combination amenity=bus_stop, parking=yes really is a park-and-ride station, you're right. But is that a correct interpretation for it? In Germany p+r spaces are signed as such, and I'm not sure wether they are legally restricted to people who use the bus or train afterwards
