Wrong route instruction

[svenluzar]

With the bicycle profile you get sometimes no instruction, or the instruction to go straight on, but in reality you must turn right or left. Below you will find three examples:

The problematic route instruction is the line with the red text-color. It should be a turn right instruction.

At the next example I miss a route instruction like turn right.

At the last example I miss a route instruction like turn left after the red line.

Feel free to test the bicycle profile at

As a warning to you: It's only an experimental installation, preprocessed with a dataset of Europe and the profile bicycle.lua.

when the way has no name, the way type is passed instead. it looks like the front end does not translate these codes.
maybe because unnamed ways are less common for car routing?

at http://www.ibikecph.dk/ we translate these way types. the code (coffeescript) is at https://github.com/ibikecph/ibikecphsite.

For all roads in the car profile the server sends an empty string instead of the road type if there is a missing street name. This we handle in the webclient by having an optional part in all directions strings, e.g. "Turn left [on %s]". So you either get "Turn left" for unnamed streets or "Turn left on Mainstreet" for Mainstreet. But I see the point of having instructions like "Turn left on bike lane".

[emiltin]

right, the car profile does not send {highway:<type} as the name for unnamed streets, like the bicycle profile does.

Okay, this will be in in the next version. Just tested it.

That said http://www.ibikecph.dk/ still uses more sophisticated route instructions (e.g. pushing the bike against one-ways).
