Hello,
It was previously mentioned on this list that pedestrian routing did not work when encountering pedestrian plazas and squares (highway=pedestrian & area=yes).
Attached is an alpha patch inspired by (read: shamelessly copied from) Mark's cycleway=opposite addition. The coding adds a pedestrian way around the perimeter of the polygon. Routing appears to work in Mapsource, but I have not yet hat a chance to test this on a device.
Good idea with this! What do you think about creating pedestrian ways that connect to each of the streets that touch the plaza instead of just creating ways around the outside? There isn't a pedestrian plaza near me anymore so I can't test this patch. Sorry. Cheers, Ben
