 For the access tags (and we do discuss access tags here), it is common
 practice to have country-specific defaults on certain highway types as
 listed in the wiki [1] and only tag what contradicts those defaults.




 I'm not sure any of the current routers uses these country specific
 defaults. My guess is that normal roads will always be allowed for
 everybody except specified explicitly differently, and motorways and roads
 with motorroad=yes will exclude certain slow vehicles. Cycleways will allow
 cycling and footways walking and usually not cycling. If some country
 specific defaults are different and nothing is tagged, it probably won't
 work. Usually mappers do add default properties explicitly on roads and
 ways, and the more mature a region is mapped, the more of those attributes
 you'd usually find.

 I think many mappers are very happy with these country specific access
rules. This will prevent an overload of tags on roads. There is only one
router I know personnaly and that is the creator of the Openfietsmap
http://www.openfietsmap.nl/homeGarmin map. His map (lite version) is
also worldwide
http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/available.
He uses this country specific scheme.

Part of his script is here. I think it makes clear that trunk roads are not
accessabel for bicycles in some countries regardless of any bicycle=no
tag.

highway=trunk  mkgmap:country ~
'(NLD|BEL|LUX|FRA|DEU|AUT|CHE|
DNK|HUN|ROU)' { set highway=motorway }
highway=trunk  bicycle=no { set highway=motorway }
highway=trunk { set highway=primary }

 There are a difference about bicycle-forbidden and a compulsory cycleway.

 In Germany it is allowed to leave the cycleway for a leftturn, if you

 with a racebike is allowed to don't look after compulsory cycleway. I.e.
 for the last case the router can give you an option to allow

Then you really want bicycle=destination and this whole use_cycleway crud
is redundant if you've mapped the cycleway correctly.  I see no compelling
argument to change the world when access=destination already exists for
exactly this situation.

If you go back in this thread you'll see that destination is only one of
several possibilities for making the cycleway not compulsory any more to
the cyclist.
I think there is a misconception regarding changing the world, this is
nothing you'll have to tag or bother with if you live in an area without
compulsory cycleways, so it really doesn't affect you at all. This is about
tagging a certain property to a road (this road has a compulsory cycleway
associated with it) in certain jurisdictions (e.g. NL, DE), where it does
matter.

I do live someplace where this is relevant, and I'm still not seeing how
the difference between the proposal and bicycle=destination isn't so subtle
as to render the distinction irrelevant.

because of the insuitable conditions of the cycleway (e.g. ice and snow in
the winter, quite frequent and a lot of time in the year) and because of
bicycles too big for the cycleway. These aren't actually caught by
destination.

In Germany trunk generally is able to cycle.
In Germany we tag car-roads/fast-roads with motorroad=yes, this could  
be trunk and primary (and perhaps secondary too?). This roads are  
forbidden (implicit) for bicycles and foot.


Think the added 2 (and changed 4th) lines are better:

motorroad=yes  mkgmap:country ~
'(DEU)' { set highway=motorway }   //think for CH and AT the same
highway=trunk  mkgmap:country ~
'(NLD|BEL|LUX|FRA|AUT|CHE|

First, we call this value designated.
Then we have also cycleways without compulsory, which have also a  
(different) sign. Belongs the bicycle=designated-tag only to them with  
compulsory? Why this tag is generally implicit in highway=cycleway? We  
have also cycleways without signs, which are non-compulsory.

So there are no uniformly tagging for compulsory cycleways on the cycleway.

I.e., if I hate cycleway and need a route without to use cycleways, how  
does it work with compulsory cycleways? Banning all cycleways don't work,  
because near a compulsory cycleways I ride illegally on the road. I have  
to ban all cycleways and all roads which have a compulsory cycleway  
(=bicycle=use_cycleway).

Sounds about right. If you have a cycleway next to a road that you can only
use to access locations on it's frontage, or for odd turn situations, seems
like the cycleway could be explicitly tagged bicycle=designated, and the
road adjacent as bicycle=destination.  This, and maybe some turn
restriction relations to handle spots where cyclists need to switch to the
other roadway to turn, should be ample to deal with all but the most bogus
routers.

The proposed tag is also for odd vehicles. In NL and DE some bicycles with
certain measurments may use the adjacent road. Not just for destination
purposes. So I'm afraid  a bicycle=destination will not work.
