Template:Map Features:Bus Stop

Tag	Importance	Description	Examples
highway=bus_stop	! Required	Describes this feature as a bus stop. This tag is a widely used on a node positioned to the side of the road (where passengers wait).	highway=bus_stop
public_transport=platform	‽ Important	For describing that this feature is a public transit platform, serving public transport routes. This is an approved tag to use for bus stops, introduced in the Public Transport proposal, even though it is not used in the same way as in common English.	public_transport=platform
name=*	‽ Recommended	Name of the bus stop, if bus stop has it, especially when there exists no public_transport=stop_area.	name=Martin Luther King Junior Boulevard at Stateside Drive
ref=*	‽ Recommended	Network-wide or operator-wide reference code of the bus stop, if bus stop has it - usually a series of 4-6 digits or letters. Often used to find the stop on digitized systems.	ref=3154
local_ref=*	‽ Recommended	The local reference of a bus stop, if bus stop has it - usually 1 or 2 digits or letters, for example "A" or "D1". If a bus station has a large number of buses arriving, many smaller bus stops, each with their own local_ref=*, will be present.	local_ref=C
network=*	? Optional	The network of the bus stop. This can either be an abbreviation or full name, depending on the network. Check other bus routes or bus stops near the one being mapped to find out how the network should be tagged in the area. The network (relevant e.g. for fares) is really dependent upon the bus company that is making a particular stop (i.e. see "network" on the route relation), so it may be better to omit this on the bus stop itself.	network=CHT, network=London Buses, network=NYC Buses, network=TNSW
operator=*	? Optional	Name of the company operating the bus stop. Note that different parts may be owned by different operators; e.g. in Germany, it is not uncommon for the pavement to be installed by the city, the signpost by the network's NGO or one of the bus companies, and the shelter (if any) be managed by an advertising agency.	operator=Arriva
shelter=*	‽ Recommended	'yes' if the stop is protected from the rain by a shelter. 'no' if it is not. The shelter may also be mapped separately using amenity=shelter and shelter_type=public_transport.	shelter=no
covered=*	? Optional	'yes' if the stop is protected from the rain by cover that is not a dedicated shelter. 'no' if it is not.	covered=no
departures_board=*	? Optional	This tag indicates the type of departures board present at the bus stop. This could be a paper timetable, a live information display, neither, or something else. departures_board=no indicates none.	departures_board=timetable
passenger_information_display=*	? Optional	If there is a real time electronic passenger information display.	passenger_information_display=yes
bench=*	? Optional	'yes' if a bench for riders to sit on is present at the stop. 'no' if not. The bench may also be mapped separately.	bench=yes
bin=*	? Optional	'yes' if there is a trash can at the bus stop. 'no' if not. The bin may also be mapped separately.	bin=no
lit=*	? Optional	'yes' if the bus stop is lit up at night. 'no' if not.	lit=yes
kerb=*	? Optional	The type of kerb at a bus stop, most likely kerb=raised	kerb=raised
tactile_paving=*	? Optional	'yes' if tactile paving (small bumps at the edge of the platform to alert visually impaired riders when they are walking into the road) are present. 'no' if not.	tactile_paving=no
wheelchair=*	? Optional	'yes' if it is wheelchair accessible. 'no' if not.	wheelchair=yes
surface=*	? Optional	The surface of the ground where the bus stop is located.	surface=concrete
pole=*	? Optional	If there is a pole marking the bus stop.	pole=yes
flag=*	? Optional	If there is a flag or sign detailing the name, reference, etc. of the bus stop.	flag=yes
traffic_sign=*	? Optional	The presence and nature of any traffic sign on the pole or shelter. See Key:traffic sign#Lists of IDs per country for values.	traffic_sign=yes
advertising=*	? Optional	The type of advertising present at the bus stop (usually on shelters).	advertising=yes
layer=*	! Required in multi-level bus stations.	For where the associated road is not at ground level. Essential with complex multi-level situations where there would otherwise be doubt as to which road (or stop_position) it was associated.	layer=-1
