You mean per stop/route pair? That's an incredible s amount of relations! It seems to me that it would be a nighmare to try and maintain it that way. At first sight it seems simpler, but with the new proposal i came up with, you can see how the stops of a variation in itinerary tie together. If th

I think it is important to have an osm object describing the timetable user-oriented for simple editing without any tool. The mapper is at a bus stop, takes a picture of the timetable, can import it later in osm without the need of any extra tool. Validator can be inside a tool. Julien « djakk »

Indeed, a mapper who wants to add this and who can't find the information on the internet or in a booklet, would have travel to the first stop, take note of all the departure times and then establish the deltas between all the stops of the itinerary.
