Easy Bus routes (in Web editor) ? (lemmy.ca)

Hi!

If there any guide how i can add bus route on OSM (in Web version of editor) ?

Seems now it's quite complicated and yet there no plans to make it simpler in Web interface?

If it would be like: you push "create route (bus or whatever)" -> choose road and select bus stops on it one way. Also, you do same from end stop to backward

Really hope developers could do that favor 📿

Thanks

If you are speaking about "West world" countrys - yes, maybe there they provide info, but there are other part of planet where it needed to be done manualy

Another project collecting GTFS feeds is transit.land. You can find a lot of non-Western countries there: https://www.transit.land/places

The point is, nowadays everywhere in the world they already use some software for the management of public transport. It would help more if you would write to the local public transport companies and ask them to publish their timetables in the standard, machine readable format.
