As discussed in #79, we have not been able to find a regular expression that encapsulates the OSM Opening Hours format.

Opening this issue in case someone has a solution, and as a general reminder to keep looking for one.

This comment (upvoted by 3 people) mentions that this format is too complex to be validated with a regex.

I don't think a regex can handle this complex format. You will need a real parser. The OSM wiki lists several implementations:

For this reason, I would recommend to close this issue.

A new issue could be opened in https://github.com/MobilityData/gbfs-validator, given that code seems to be required to validate OSM opening hours.
