Or should I just trust people to look up the timetables (or use > a timetable & OSM mash up serivce that is going to be created). I've go the same issue, in my town Padova, some routes are extended or shortened at evenings and on Sundays/holidays. I have started mapping the extended/shortened routes as separate relations, using opening_hours to specifiy the operating times (occasionally I used also day_on, but opening_hours supports both day and time). For now, these "special" routes have been tagged with network=APS Mobilità Serale or network=APS Mobilità Festivo (Serale=evening, Festivo=sunday/holidays) instead of the usual network=APS Mobilità. Roland Olbricht's public transport sketch renderer can indeed distinguish between the different operating times/network. Unfortunately, Openbusmap/OPNV still can't distinguish between these lines and the regular ones, sharing the same ref number. and, actually, Is anybody planning a routing+timetable website with OSM mashup??? I don't have the skills to develop such a thing, but I can help with testing and smaller developing. I know www.cityadvisor.net which is a routing program for Windows Mobile smartphones and supports frequences or full timetables (databases in XML format + a database creator), still without mapping support. Maybe it would be nice to cooperate with the developer, we got the maps, and he has got the timetables-based routing ciao Tiziano
