Hi Minko, Hi Gerd, Selon Minko <ligfietser@online.nl>:
Good question Gerd, I never realized that actually ;-) Route restrictions for cycling are hardly tagged I suppose, and if they apply for cars they are on places where you don't cycle anyway.
You're reminding me of a question I've got for mkgmap developers. I'd like to know if the right turn on red (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_turn_on_red) is taken into account by Garmin in their map format and routing algorithm. I guess yes because Garmin is US-based, where this kind of traffic light is widespread and that it allows for faster right turns. Has anyone ever succeeded in reverse-engineering it in the map file format ? It'd be great because we recently got a new sign in France allowing cyclists to turn right on red after yielding to crossing pedestrians. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Turn_right_on_red.JPG). In OSM, it's tagged with : type=restriction restriction:bicycle=give_way Thanks, Paco
