The public_transport=platform_edge tag is used on the edges of a public_transport=platform which are parallel to the track and where passengers can enter/exit a vehicle.

This is a more generic version of railway=platform_edge; refer to that page for more details and mapping guidance.

Keep in mind that this tagging was not part of the public transport proposal and may not be officially supported by tools like ÖPNVKarte.

How to map

Draw a way way along the edge of a public_transport=platform area and add the public_transport=platform_edge tag.

Consider adding the platform edge to a public_transport=stop_area relation.
