Where it gets more complicated is when we start to think what kind
of marking we should expect to see on the ground before we say that
this is a cycle route in the OSM sense. The same applies when
deciding that some street is not really a cycle route.
I take a simplistic approach to this. A road is a bicycle route if and
only if it has a bicycle lane (lanes if a two-way road).
Australian Road Rules:
Rule 153:
"A bicycle lane is a marked lane, or the part of a marked
lane:
(a) beginning at a bicycle lane sign applying to the lane;
and
(b) ending at the nearest of the following:
(i) an end bicycle lane sign applying to the lane;
(ii) an intersection (unless the lane is at the unbroken
side of the continuing road at a T–intersection or
continued across the intersection by broken
lines);
(iii) if the road ends at a dead end — the end of the
road."
Rule 247:
"The rider of a bicycle riding on a length of road with a
bicycle lane designed for bicycles travelling in the same
direction as the rider must ride in the bicycle lane unless it is
impracticable to do so."
