I found the routes to my transit system on transit.land, then exported the route and stop geojson files. I converted the route file to Gpx so I can change the line style and see it better. Then I used the public transport plugin to help add info to each stop. It was pretty repetitive, and I’m not even finished yet. I still need to add the actual route and add both route and stops to a relation.
That sounds fairly complicated, so I’ll make sure that I’ve done my research and practiced before I try to add the routes. I didn’t know about transit.land, so that’s really helpful, thanks :)
If you’re adding from an external source make sure you’ve checked the licence is OK, not everything that’s “open data” is as permissive as OSM requires.
How did you add them? Did you draw a line for the route first? There’s only one route in my area, so I want to add the others :)

Thanks for replying :)

That’s a good point, thanks :)
