Hi, I would like also to be able to map four kind of cycle routes : touristic, commuting, road bike, mountain bike (mtb). Today we can map mtb and general cycling route (most of them are touristic though not limited to them). But unfortunately mtb and cycling routes are split in two kinds of routes. I'd prefer to have cycle route for every kind of cycling and precise the type by an other tag (with the possibility to set multiple kind of cycle route for the same relation). So what I’m thinking is to add tags to cycle route relation in order to precise there use https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Cycle_routes#Relations tourism=yes : if the cycle route is a touristic purpose route commute=yes : if it's a route for commute and every day cycling road_bike=yes : if it's a route to do road biking sport mtb=yes : if it's a cycle route mtb oriented
And for general route (and car routes) I’d say that type=road relation is what you need https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:route%3Droad (By the way the Route des Grandes Alpes in France is also a cycle route https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Route_des_Grandes_Alpes ) Le mar. 7 janv. 2020 à 20:24, joost schouppe <joost.schou...@gmail.com> a écrit : > > Hi, > > Has there been any previous discussion regarding tagging recreational versus functional routes? > > Especially for car routes, I haven't seen any way to tag touristic routes for driving cars, like the Turist Veger in Norway or the Route des Cols in France. It is also of specific interest for cycling. For example, in Belgium we have a very dense "node network" for cycling for fun, but those routes aren't exactly interesting for commuting. On the other hand, we have "cycle highways" which can be boring and focus on actually getting somewhere. > > In the case of cars, the lack of clarity prevents mapping.
