  Since one point of view classified the solution under a rendering 
problem (showing corridor_width), the chances of the OpenCycleMap 
maintainer updating his style for a specific limited use case in the US 
are near zero.

   I think a great solution would be to do this in Openlayers / Leaflet 
and implement the corridor_width attribute when defining and showing the 
proposed routes.   That could be hosted on any simple web host as KML; 
no database or PostGreSQL needs to be set up.   And this could be 
implemented quite rapidly.
