[OSM-talk] OpenRouteService and footways/cycleways

Hi all,

I've been playing with http://openrouteservice.org and noticed that lots of
routes are marked as footways even though they're on major cycle routes.
For example, switch the the cycle map layer here and try to route along
National Cycle Route 1. You can't do it!

http://data.giub.uni-bonn.de/openrouteservice/?zoom=14&lat=6724056.73561&lon=-4373.6988&layers=00B0TTTTTT

So just a quick plea to mark up footpaths as bicycle=yes or even as
highway=cycleway if that's appropriate.

Kind regards,
Tom
