Changeset: 76092773
As system requires adding in bus= designated, I don't think thepath way is done correctly.

Reverted - you can't drive an ordinary bus on the route.

In answer to your request about changing tags, you changed them then sent a message, said in a friendly way, maybe you should follow your own rule. You cannot block access to everything with access = no. You must tag a Transport to allow it down there, Guided buses are buses. As we work with bus routes and OSM, it needs to be tagged to allow service such as the A1& m2 to use it. Please look at the link, it confirms that the route needs a transport tag. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:highway%3Dbus_guideway

You can't drive a normal bus on these sections (or in fact any other vehicle, or cycle, or ride - a horse) hence "access=no".
You can use a "guided bus" - hence bus:guided=yes.
If your system doesn't understand bus:guided, then you need to preprocess the data beforehand -- not change carefuilly surveyed on the ground OpenStreetMap data.

In your comments you mention 'the system' and 'we'. Please coul you be more specific?These comments suggest that you should be following https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Organised_Editing_Guidelines
There is nothing in your profile suggeting you are anything other than a hobby mapper.

Does anyone get paid for mapping within OSM, or does everyone do it as a hobby and for free? I don't know. To be honest I would be more than happy never touching OSM, but unfortunately I do have to input new roads etc all other the place to allow us to track bus routes along them. I was the first one to put in the guided bus way from maps supplied by the council until some else could do a proper job with a GPS once it was opened.
Whilst I try not to do things wrong the only tool that gives advice is wiki. While I know it is edited by anyone it is a tool that OSM provide links to. I have asked for a proper set of rules from others, but no one has any, and I don’t think there is any either, and you will all have a different rule to a point about something.
I do appreciate what you’re saying, and understand what you mean about bus:guided=yes, I can find no information about it in wiki. There is no help about it in the other help links either.
One thing, why has no one commented on the wiki page link below about how they say the guided bus way should be tagged?

I have pushed this up to our software developers who do know OSM far better than me, if they need to add it in they will. As travelinese.com journey planner and the Bristol Real time data is run from this system. Can I ask that you leave it as it is for a few weeks? I am away from the office for a week. Hopefully we can sort this when I get back; I should have an answer by then. If not the route will show straight lines and not work correctly.
