As forming part of the steering organization around GTFS, I can clearly say, that the format doesn't imply at all any definition of the usage right or permission (to use it openly). There are a lot of people within the GTFS ecosystem that promote Open Data. But you definitively have to make sure you have the proper permission before including it on OpenStreetMap! A pure import should also follow OSM's import guidelines. But if you have the permission to use the data, you can definitively use it for manual mapping and check the stop one by one. This is already a good helper to get this valuable data in, if possible and legally allowed.
