Re: [Talk-transit] Walking buses?

Christoph The fact that a sign for a walking bus coincides with a NaPTAN point has to be a coincidence ... there can be no other explanation. That point is, or has been, a bus stop in the past - or maybe the "anchor" for a Hail-and-Ride section ... without knowing the AtcoCode for the location I

[Talk-transit] Walking buses?

Hi everyone when I resurveyed some bus stops today I came across some signs saying "walking bus" (http://www.b3e.net/walking-bus.jpg). Apart from the small sign on a lamp post was nothing else on the street which indicated a bus stop. There were even parking cars right in front of the sign. Back h

[Talk-transit] West Bromwich Bus Station

You might like to take a look at http://blog.mappa-mercia.org/ where the results of our mapping party this weekend on the bus station are shown(we didn't just do the bus station btw!), compared to the raw NaPTAN data and what the other mapping providers think West Brom bus station looks like. Rega

Re: [Talk-transit] [Talk-gb-westmidlands] NaPTAN bus stop databaseimport - some more observations

Thomas, if you haven't already that info is useful for the wiki page. Sometimes a route plaque is missing or the reference number is absent. If one of the barcode labels is inspected much of the verification check can be achieved. In/on most stops I've seen three of these stickers with (Case1) (Cas
