Hi Brian, Thanks for the great work here - it's been 9 years since the bus stop data in Birmingham was this good so great to see such a step change improvement in the data. Just a few of the orphaned stops to work through.
Also great to see such rich tree data going in. Sorry I never got round to testing the conflate tool but I see you have your method instead :-) The bus lanes will help too. They are being removed in Coventry (well, at trial removal stage so far), but good to add them where they still exist.
