I've been adding in some bus routes around Peckham for a few weeks now. With some of the routes I use them so often that it's pretty easy to do it all from memory, but I've needed to take a few rides to check one or two routes like the sloowwwwww P13. I've not managed to extend them the whole way south, though. I didn't fancy spending my whole weekend getting stuck in Norwood or Crystal Palace ;)
Getting the various one-way roads right in the relations is fiddly but the results look nice. I can't wait to see what Elephant & Castle looks like when the crazy number of bus routes are all plotted in... the numbering will extend about a mile along the road!
Now that Thomas Wood has imported all of the NAPTAN bus stops for London, I get to stick all of those into the relations as well. Not far off from having a half-decent public transport map of Peckham to match the cycle and default layers. Joy!

Had you had a chance to read this osm.wiki/User:Oxomoa/Public_transport_schema ?
I've started to put bus stops on the road and will later add bus platform in the relation.

I was planning to ride all bus routes out of Sutton town centre with a GPS, I've not yet got around to it... (As so often is the case with me)
The PT Schema that dmuecke was ignored for the purposes of the NaPTAN import due to a fairly late arrival of the specification, and several queries people had over the details. (Plus it didn't help that the whole page was reverted after minor clarifications had been made to it...)

I think we're all guilty of not getting around to many interesting & useful projects :)
Dmuecke, that spec looks *scary*! I think I'll carry on with the basic stuff already agreed for now.
