There are three types of public transport stops:
 Normal public transport stops are those that occupy a certain lane length.
 Bays are those public transport stops located at one side of the section so that public transport vehicles stopped within the bay do not cause an obstruction within the section.
 Terminals are a model for public transport stations with a certain capacity for a given number of vehicles.

A list of all the public transport lines using the public transport stop is also shown in the editor. Refer to the Public Transport section for information on defining public transport lines and more
