I took a look at it and I noticed two things: 1. That old way which is supposed to be a bridge is not tagged as bridge. Maybe the routine algo regards a highway without a bridge as a faster route?
2. The new bridge has a motorroad:no tag while the old highway has only got the highway:trunk tag... maybe this has an effect on routing too? ed On Mon, Feb 21, 2011 at 4:33 PM, tutubi <tut...@backpackingphilippines.com>wrote: > Hi ! > > I again went to Vigan to stay for the night from Sta.
