Hi Stephen.<br>
If the combination amenity=bus_stop, parking=yes really is a
park-and-ride station, you're right. But is that a correct
interpretation for it?<br>
In Germany p+r spaces are signed as such, and I'm not sure wether
they are legally restricted to people who use the bus or train
afterwards (if not stated as such directly, like it's sometimes the
case at airports etc., where you have to put a corresponing parking
ticket behind the front window).<br>
<br>
So yes, it's useful to know about the park-and-ride stuff, but <br>
1) I agree with you, that probably parking=yes is not the best way
to tag that, and <br>
2) (the more important question for me as a data consumer in this
case), if that tag combination is correctly interpreted as a P+R
facility.<br>
<br>
regards<br>

useful if I was searching for station POI's. It's not just
whether parking is nearby, but whether it's dedicated to
commuters - not something you can figure out just from how close
the parking is. And it is information that belongs to the
station, not the carpark.</div>

You can park in a lot of places, shall we add parking=yes to
all of<br>
them? You can also chew gum there, should we also add<br>
chew_chewing_gum=yes?<br>
<br>
A parking is an area, a bus stop is more or less a point. If
the two<br>
are close, you can see this in the db (and potentially also,
if there<br>
are any linear barriers between them). IMHO there is no need
or sense<br>
in combining the two, but if I were to emphasize on a parking
with<br>
annected bus stop I'd see it as an extra property of the
parking, not<br>
the bus stop.<br>
