Hi,
A property owner in Germany has complained that several routing engines
- crucially also the one used by the local transport authority - route
pedestrians trough their private residential property as a "shortcut"
for accessing a bus stop.
The private residential property has two driveways (highway=service,
service=driveway) entering it from different sides, thereby enabling
people to save a few metres by walking through, rather than around, the
property.
These driveways do not have an access=private (or access=destination)
tag or anything like that.
Questions:
1. Should a routing engine automatically assume that something tagged a
"driveway" is not suitable for through traffic?
2. If you map such driveways, would you add access=private (or
access=destination) in OSM...
2a. ... even if there is no specific signage locally?
2b. ... if there is a sign that says "access to houses X,Y,Z" without
saying that other access is forbidden?
2c. ... if there is a sign that says "private driveway"?
Bye
Frederik
