[OSM-talk-be] temporary cycle routes

I would only map them if they are signposted. So if there are signs
indicating how you get from one dedicated fiets-o-strade section to
another via "regular" roads, no problem. If there are no signs, let
the router decide the route based on other tags.

As for the concrete that has to be placed on the ground. I'm not in
favour of mapping things that one day might be there (or were there
for that matter). There are already enough objects one have to
maintain that are actually there.

regards
