I think having the website would be useful, I think I'd actually use it
quite a bit — in OsmAnd it shows in a bus stop's details page, so it'd
be a one-click way to get to the timetable for any given stop:

It looks like there's another contender for the URL to use, the above
stop <https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/8218219953> has
serviceinformation.transperth.info instead of 136213.info, and I think
that might be better because it at least indicates some association to
Transperth (although if there were one using transperth.wa.gov.au that'd
be even better).

I just wonder about how useful it is, given (presumably) the URL can
be derived from the ref key. Is the idea that people would directly
click on the link from the slippy map? Or is some other system going
to read the URL?
I'm not saying don't do it, but if they changed the format of the
link, then all stops would need updating.

Last week I posted in Geogeeks Perth Slack about a proposal to tag
all Transperth bus stops with live bus time web-page as the
website tag. I have an OSM file of 5475 Transperth bus stops ready
to upload.
Overpass query:
node
[highway=bus_stop]
[network=Transperth]
["ref"~"^[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]$"]
;
out meta;
website tags added as:
https://136213.mobi/RealTime/RealTimeStopResults.aspx?SN=
and the ref key value appended.
Would anyone like to comment before I upload?
Regards,
Gregory
