<p>What actually is it that you're referring to when you say
"routing" above?</p>
<p>Different routers will process different tags for different modes
of transport when deciding whether something is routable or not,
and they also update at different times (which might even be
months after the data in OSM has updated).</p>

there are two of them (OSRM and Graphopper) and each supports 3
modes. Both can route over
