Traffic updates aren't exactly a problem for me as I travel everywhere using my bicycle/public transit.

The only problem I face is that I can't get public transit information on OSM. Now ideally the city should be the one making this information accessible. Unfortunately for me, I currently live in a shitty city (although not for long). Therefore, within a matter of months, Organic would meet almost 100% of my navigation needs.

pretty sure organic is working on that, I remember there being docs on building with PT data.
