Well, yes and no. There are certainly routers that do that; the very wonderful CycleStreets has a "what time are you leaving" input field. But it's equally possible to make the case that, for the 2% edge case (your route includes a ferry), it's not worth cluttering up the UI for the 98% who are just, say, cycling across town to work. FWIW, I'm planning to flag up the presence of a ferry by saying "route includes ferry, 5 services an hour" and let the user drag the route somewhere else if that doesn't suit them. cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/Ferry-frequency-tp5780010p5780184.html Sent from the Tagging mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list Tagging@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
