I believe visibility of the lanes isn't necessarily the problem, but the
tagging scheme. Actually, I should say schemes; quite difficult to
memorise the differences. And that's before finding out if taxis,
motorbike, bicycles or even cars are permitted.

Hi all,
I was slightly surprised to find that bus lane tagging in London is
very patchy!
Bus lanes are easy to spot, even from imagery:
1. They are on roads with bus routes (see Andy's Transport map)
2. They have thick white lines separating them from the general lanes
3. They are often painted red/brown
4. They often have big bus-shaped objects in them
The simplest way of tagging them is just busway=lane . (But you can
add lanes:bus:forward=1 and stuff like that if you really want to.
Lots more at http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Bus_lanes .)
I'll add a few over the next couple of days - it would be smashing if
others wanted to join in.
cheers
Richard
