[Talk-transit] Status on Public Service Vehicle (PSV) vs busway scheme for bus lanes

2014-10-02 Thread Victor Ramirez
I've known about the busway=opposite_lane tag for a year or two and used it. 
The bus lanes wiki page mentions a broader alternative, the PSV scheme. For a 
bus routing application, we need to know which scheme to support. Busway is 
probably more widely used, so it makes sense to support it for compatibility 
reasons. Nevertheless, the buses talk page argues against busway while 
referring to the approved Public Transport Schema. Public Transport Schema does 
not seem to include tagging for exclusive bus lanes. I also have no data on 
whether if anybody is adopting the PSV scheme for buses. Would somebody like to 
chime in on the matter?___

[Talk-transit] Should I split roads to create bus routes?

2014-05-26 Thread Victor Ramirez
In order to create a bus route relation, I would have to split roads
into many small segments with identical tags. This causes Andy Allan's
transport render to repeat route labels more than necessary as a side
effect. Should I split the road segments or use some other method for
creating bus route relations?
