This is missing the point. I only want to point out that apparently roundtrip=yes without any additional tagging is being used as meaning "this route is a loop" and "round-trip=no" as meaning it's an A-to-b route. This should remain valid. And let us consider how to cater for other cases. Any

I agree that "cargo_bike" is a nice word for this kind of vehicle. However, I would like to point out that the term 'bike' is not very common in OSM, mostly due to the ambiguity between 'bicycle' and 'motorcycle'. To prevent this, we should think about building a tag around the terms bicycle and

Please keep in mind that in the EU the border between bicycle and (small) motorcycle is between Pedelec (a bicycle) and S-Pedelec (a small motorcycle). And cargo-bikes come in both flavours here. As said before, access tags in Osm are describing the legal access situation. BUT I'm pointing this

I always thought that routrip=yes was an alternative when there is no start and end point to enter in from=* to=* key. Otherwise circular routes with a known start/end point can enter as from=A via=B to=A. ___ Tagging mailing list
