I am not a bus spotter or a photter but why would I want to know what route the 172 Bus takes? Other than from a route planning PoV so that I don't get stuck behind them all the time. I understand that people would like to put bus routes into OSM but does it have to require the cutting up of roundabouts and junctions? I would not go around cutting stuff up just so I can put in a route of ice cream van.
