In Hong Kong, we always consider bus stops in opposite directions different bus stops (including the information systems of bus companies). So, for a pair of bus stops for different directions, even they have the same name and share the same stop_position, I make 2 stop_areas, one for each direction, possibly sharing the stop_position. We seldom consider "crossing the road to change bus" to be the same as transferring at the same spot (原站轉車), as in the case of platforms immediately adjacent to the other on the same side of the road. Though, in bus stations, we consider all platforms and stop_positions to be the same stop_area, even they are on different tracks (車坑), again, the same practice as bus companies.
