It is not necessary to map both the platform and the stop position. One of the two is enough. Mappers in some countries map both (e.g., Germany) while other countries primarily map bus stop nodes as the only objects containing all the stop's details (e.g., Belgium, UK), adding {{Tag|highway|platform}} and {{Tag|railway|platform}} ways where they exist and occasionally {{Tag|public_transport|stop_position}} nodes when this is ambiguous. In that case only the platform nodes need to be added to the route relations.
Because a bus stop may consist of multiple objects, some people use a [[Relations|relation]] with {{Tag|type|public_transport}} and {{Tag|public_transport|stop_area}} to connect them.
Wires used by trolley buses can be mapped by adding {{Tag|trolley_wire|yes}} to the highway. The {{Tag|highway|bus_guideway}} tag should be used for sections of guided busway.
