Not by any means. 1057’s are the ‘go-to’ way to DO SOMETHING for traffic engineers. - Cyclists getting hit by cars at a junction? Paint some 1057s across it ‘to alert drivers that there may be cyclists there” (though of course drivers should be conscious that there could be cyclists on any road) - can’t work out how to get cyclists around a bus stop or parked car? Paint a 1057 to indicate road position. OSM Wiki Cycle_routes <https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Cycle_routes> "Cycle routes or bicycle route are named or numbered or otherwise signed route” I would argue that a ‘route’ marked with nothing but 1057 symbols is not useful in any way and doesn’t meet that definition I have similar issues with London’s Q network - sections of un-numbered quietway. However, these should indicate a certain level of service - ie that they meet TfL s quality criteria in terms of traffic volumes etc - but also have a point. Q sections are supposed to be feeders for the strategic cycle network of QW and CS routes - ie follow a Q and you should soon get to a main, destination signposted, route. (though again, naming and numbering being revised and all routes that meet *latest* quality standards will be C numbered)
