Probably not a convenient area for you, but I added bus stops in the Glasgow area from NAPTAN data a few years back, manually merging in with existing data and surveying those where it wasn't clear (and flagging a few cases that I didn't get a chance to survey). However it took quite a bit longer than I had anticipated soI didn't do any further areas.
If you were to develop some way to compare NAPTAN & OSM by reference/location, and then marking as close matches to existing (needing updated or not) or possible conflicts to be survey, etc, would be interesting. But has been noted, this probably has to be reviewed on a stop-by-stop basis, as there are so many potential issues with both the NAPTAN and OSM data.
