When I start mapping a bus line, I have several route relations which contain all the stops for each variation in itinerary. When I add the ways, it would be nice to reuse subroute relations for the parts where ways are shared between lines. When I come back later and I want to compare whether

Good analysis Seirra, I would not "reuse" route=road in other route=* relations though. route=bicycle might share segments with route=foot/walking/hiking, but I'd keep everything related to bus/trolley_bus and coach together in terms of sharing of subroutes not mix it with other route types. For

I would definitely want routes to be composed of subroutes which are shared with other routes, hence the reasoning of keeping the stop sequences in the route relations. Polyglot On Thu, Mar 14, 2019, 15:41 Paul Allen On Thu, 14 Mar 2019 at 11:21, Tony Shield > wrote: > > Am I right in thinking

I think we should move to subrelations for bus routes at some point. Actually doing it is somewhat tricky. We'd definitely need editor support to show that a route which consists of subroutes is continuous or not. The biggest point of contention seems to be whether the stops should go into the

The existing scheme for tagging cycle routes is robust. The problem I see when 'reusing' it in a hierarchy of routes, is that we would need a role to indicate that the sub route is traversed in reverse for a particular "super" route. It would also help to have an indicator in JOSM to indicate

The whole issue is that due to tram rails bending differently than road ways, the tram rails are mapped on their own OSM ways. This gives a nicely detailed rendering, a better description of reality, but now the information that for the straight parts the rails are embedded into the highway is
