Tag Importance Description Examples
highway=bus_stop ! Required Describes this feature as a bus stop. Most common tag. highway=bus_stop
public_transport=platform ? Optional For describing that this feature is a public transit platform, serving public transport routes. This is an approved tag to use for bus stops, even though it is not used in the same way as in common English. Less common, but approved tag. public_transport=platform
name=*  Recommended Name of the bus stop, especially when there exists no public_transport=stop_area. If a stop area relation exists, then this tag can include the numbering of the platform in addition to the bus stop name. name=Martin Luther King Junior Boulevard at Stateside Drive
ref=*  Recommended Reference code of the bus stop. ref=3154
local_ref=*  Recommended The reference of a bus stop in a bus station. If a bus station has a large number of buses arriving, many smaller bus stops, each with their own local_ref=*, will be present. This tag is usually only needed in bus stations with several bus stops. local_ref=C
network=*  Recommended 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. network=CHT, network=London Buses, network=NYC Buses, network=TNSW
operator=*  Recommended Name of the company operating the buses that stop at the bus stop. If several different operating companies serve the stop, use a semicolon (;) to separate the different operators in the value of the tag. operator=Arriva
shelter=*  Recommended 'yes' if the stop is protected from the rain by a shelter. 'no' if it is not. shelter=no
departures_board=*  Recommended 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
bench=*  Recommended 'yes' if a bench for riders to sit on is present at the stop. 'no' if not. bench=yes
bin=*  Recommended 'yes' if there is a trash can at the bus stop. 'no' if not. bin=no
tactile_paving=*  Recommended '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
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
lit=*  Recommended 'yes' if the bus stop is lit up at night. 'no' if not. lit=yes
surface=*  Recommended The surface of the ground where the bus stop is located. surface=concrete
