Hello, makes perfect sense, assuming OSM is mapping, not routing project and some other layer will be needed for the routing. Just a small set of questions: 1. As I can see, currently stop-on-a-way is the preferred approach for mapping tram stops. Do you propose to map tram stops like bus ones, i.e. beside the way? That makes sense, but will probably require massive change in currently mapped objects. 2. Withdrawing stop_areas and stop_area_groups is OK if the routing software can route walking person from one stop to another. I'm not sure this is the case now -- there's no established approach to the footways/sidewalks mapping (please correct me if I'm wrong). Still, it's possible to rely on stations' proximity 3. bus_stop already defines `ref' tag, will proposed `stop_id' be something different?
