I don't see why this needs to be a separate project. We already have Key:opening_hours for amenities, why not Tag:highway:bus_stop with additional tags that describe when each bus line stops there and a relation to map the greater bus route. That should be sufficient information to map the transit system and the data wouldn't be spread across two independently maintained databases. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
