Non-live edits

0

Hi, A few days ago I added a bus route ([https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/131752472 here]) however it's still not gone live and I didn't know whether I've messed something up or whether it takes a few weeks to go live?

If it's of any help I ticked the box asking for a reviewer to check edits before they went live,

Many thanks, Kind Regards, Dave

From the changeset summary you seem to have created 34 relations all called "Bus 140: Earl Estate -> Chatham" each with one or two bus stops. These should all be one (or two) relation(s).

Given the name you have used I suspect you meant to do this PTv2 style with a relation for each direction in which case it would be unusual for the relation to contain bus stops on both sides of a road. The relevant roads should also be included in these relations.

There isn't a really a delay before edits go live they are all available in the database immediately. The length of time it takes for various services to update varies.

Ah.... okay, My aim was to add bus routes - I'll have a proper read of things and If it doesn't go plan I'll revert everything I've done,

Many thanks for your help InsertUser it's greatly appreciated, Thanks

The default iD editor is particularly confusing for editing most relation types. I would tend to use JOSM for this sort of thing, but even then it can be a bit difficult to tell what is being selected via which interface.
