Re: [OSM-talk] cycle.travel bike routing for Western Europe
The bicycle profile is available in OSRM for quite some time now, but I've yet to find a public OSRM instance with bicycle or foot routing... It's graphhopper, not OSRM, but if that's as irrelevant to you as it is to me, https://www.komoot.de/plan/ is a great bike/foot router. ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

[OSM-talk] cycle.travel bike routing for Western Europe
Hi all, I'm really pleased to announce that http://cycle.travel/ now has OSM-based cycle routing for Western Europe: France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Austria, Italy, Spain, Portugal, the UK and Ireland. You can try it here: http://cycle.travel/map and if you log in, you can save/share your planned routes (and change your user preferences from miles to km ). It's built with (patched) OSRM and a complex custom profile. It takes account of elevation, cycle routes, surface quality and more. All routes are fully draggable and you can export to GPX, TCX, and PDF. The cartography is specially designed for the site. == Routing details == If it doesn't follow a route you'd expect it to take, this is usually because surface tags are missing. For example, at http://cycle.travel/map?lat=50.0181lon=2.0333zoom=15, the canalside path is tagged as 'highway=path' with no surface tags. cycle.travel assumes that paths in rural areas have poor quality surfaces, so will try not to route along them. Adding a 'surface=gravel' to this path, which the aerial imagery suggests, will make the router like it. (Access tags are also good.) == Miscellaneous notes == - The tileserver is a little slow - please be gentle! - There are occasional inconsistencies in the tiles - old styles that haven't refreshed yet. - You can't route between the UK and mainland Europe (there's a big lake in the way. Only Chris Froome is allowed to cycle through the tunnel and look how far it got him) - I'm planning on weekly updates but it'll be less often at first. - Known issue with highway=trunk, bicycle=yes getting undue prominence. - Known issue with fahrradstrassen/fietsstraten not being prioritised. Still lots to improve but I hope you like it - and, as ever, thanks to all the mappers who have contributed all the lovely data.

It prefers cycleways to roads, so it'll usually route via the cycleways (assuming they're properly connected). It makes a real difference if you have a cycletrack along side a primary route or a cycleway through the fields. In a city you often prefer calm residential roads over cycleways along side major roads. In this way the routing does not find many smarter, saver and shorter + faster routes. 2. Neither traffic_light/crossing nor shape turns are evaluated. There's a routing penalty for traffic lights. Well, how about crossing=* ? In my region there are no traffic_signals map on cycleways but crossing=traffic_signal together with highway=traffic_signal or highway=crossing on the common node of cycleway and road. Not sure what you mean by shape turns - can you explain? Sorry, was a typo. I meant sharp turns. I found a route where in favour of the cycleway the route leads down a ramp, makes a u-turn (radius 2.5m otherwise you fall into the river) and on the next bridge the same, first 180° turn than uphill a ramp and two more turns. 3.
