> routes in Belgium, so here's a little request: if you know some bus
> routes, or see bus stops along your roads, consider adding some bus
> lines to OSM as well :-)
>
> The current tagging rules for the route relations are at
>
> http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/WikiProject_Belgium/Conventions/Bus_and_tram_lines
> Note that that page could perhaps use some input as well, since we still
> need a proper tagging scheme for "belbussen", and night buses. Also
> adding bus stops to the relations isn't covered yet.
>
> You may need to make yourself familiar with relations first if you've
> never worked with them. Potlatch makes it much easier to work with them
> compared to JOSM.

> In Potlatch, the magical button is the second one at the bottom right.
> Press it when you have a way selected and create a new relation (or
> select one if you or someone else has already made it). Add all ways
> the bus takes to the relation like that. If there's a part where the
> bus only goes into one direction, you can add a "role" to the way. This
> role can then be "forward" or "backward" depending on the direction of
> the road (forward if the bus follows the same direction as the
> direction of the way) and you can add it in the light grey text box
> next to the relation name when you have the way selected.

> If you run into trouble or if you want to let someone check if you're
> doing things correctly, we're here to help you :-)

> PS: Polyglot, if you have some time, please put all the bus lines in
> Leuven and Vlaams-Brabant on that page :-)
