Routing service for pedestrians (Mapquest) produces longest path #23

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Use MapQuest and set "routeType=pedestrian" as a RequestOption ie.
          RoadManager roadManager = new MapQuestRoadManager();
      roadManager.addRequestOption("routeType=pedestrian");
2.try to get directions from (51.63191, -3.105908) to (51.629444, -3.102241)
3.set a path overlay on your map

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The expected output would be for the algorithm to choose the shortest path. It 
chooses the longest path instead

What version of the product are you using?
osmbonuspack_v3.3

Please provide any additional information below.
As you can see from the images there is a fork in the trail. The route we 
obtain is the longest one..!!

MapQuest service behaviour : nothing we can do on our (client) side. 
They have a forum, you can raise the point to them directly. 

This could also be due to an OSM data issue (shortest path not allowed to 
pedestrians for instance?).
