I recall a tool developed for the west midlands showing the state of the imported data, but can that be used nationwide? The cycle map and regular chatter have seen coverage blossom. Obviously bus stops aren't as interesting to fellow OSM nutters as cycle routes; and the cycle map was an "early mover" and got onto the front page of the main web site. But can't we make a bit more of an effort to push this across the GB community? After cars and walking, public transport is the most used means of getting around ths country so I'd say it should be a fairly high priority to get that data right.
