G'day talk-au, Increasingly at major intersections, there has been an effort to improve cyclist safety, which has led to some cycle lanes terminating before the intersection and providing a ramp for cyclists to join a shared path and use push button traffic lights to cross separated from the carriageway. As such, there has been an increasing use of "All Bicycles" signage, which from my research is legally enforceable.
Some examples: https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/dQy7A06SHDfBKcN7xBKRFA (cycle lane terminates before the intersection) https://www.mapillary.com/map/im/2alrT9RBIzuY7JiFrnq6lQ (cycle lane terminates due to narrow bridge, so cyclists must use the adjacent shared path) My tagging mechanism for the connection between the roadway and the cycleway/shared path (via the flush ramp) has been highway=cycleway oneway=yes surface=paved Possibly not the best solution, but the best that I have come up with so far. As for the road after the ramp, I generally tag it with cycleway=no since the infrastructure disappears. However in addition to the aforementioned tagging scheme, I'm curious to whether the road beyond should be tagged with bicycle=no up until the next intersection. For instance, the first example would be tagged bicycle=no from the ramp until Tumbi Road. Whilst bicycles are not explicitly prohibited, the logical result from requiring cyclists to leave the carriageway is that they aren't allowed on the road, and I'm wondering how to replicate that properly in OSM so that routers can understand. Interested to hear your thoughts, Thanks, Luke
