Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Bus routes in Rugby

[Brian Prangle]

Hi Gareth

If they're that old and no longer exist then just delete them!  If the bus
stops in your area have route ref nos on them than that can be an aid.
Otherwise there's nothing to do but ride the buses if the bus company or
local transport authority is unwilling to release the data under an open
licence.  Having mapped bus route relations in the past and tried to keep
them up to date I've come to the conclusion that the routes are too
volatile to be worth entering as OSM data (and we don't make it easy to add
bus route relations either!) so they really belong as data rendered on
another map using OSM data as a base map. But good luck if you want to try

Regards

Brian

Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Bus routes in Rugby

Rugby local services are operated by Stagecoach Rugby depot, although I do not 
know if the new D1/D2/D3 services are operated out of Northampton or Daventry 
instead.
I’ve noticed there are some arriva/centrebus and de courcey services too for 
further afield routes.

Which bus company serves Rugby?

We could ask our contacts in Warwickshire CC, or the designer of this map on 
their website:

Hiya,

I see there are some bus routes mapped as relations in Rugby. They appear to 
have been done about 10 years ago and certain services now do not exist, new 
ones have been introduced and others diverted.

What are your suggested options of maintaining and managing this data?
I’m hesitant to delete stuff, especially as I wont necessarily be able to 
replace it with the correct data!
Are the route plans available in a OSM friendly licensed way? Or is it a case 
of spending a day on t’buses recording the routes?

Cheers,
Gareth
