bicycle=use_sidepath routing issue #5813

Open fqdb opened 7 years ago

fqdb commented 7 years ago

It seems that the bicycle=use_sidepath tag is not recognized by the routing engine. The use_sidepath tag usually means that the road should not be used by bicycles (with some exceptions). So the bicycle routing should always penalize the routing of ways tagged with use_sidepath. It seems that cycleways are already prefered, but sometimes the 'sidepath' is a normal (residential) road, and that's when the routing engine seems to ignore the use_sidepath tag. photo_2017-04-12_10-59-20

But routing here seems correct, as the sidepath goes along the road. Only the line could be positioned slightly more left (or right in driving direction) to make clear that one should ride the side path and not the main road. However, sidepath does not mean that you should use the next road (along the church here), this would require a 'bicycle=no' for the main road.
