Thank you for the photo.  It is the first of the new posters I have 
seen so it has helped me to check the Traveline and NextBuses 
references!

This use of OSM shows the value of the footpaths to public transport 
information and the great work done by those who survey...  but more 
use like this does need to have most of the roads on to be credible.

As an OSM mapper myself I press on trying to complete the road network 
in my area to improve this credibility but I would prefer to use my 
time adding detail that is not on the other maps or amending imported 
data sources where I can see that improvement is necessary.

Best wishes
