[OSM-talk] Guides to improve navigation data in OpenStreetMap

+1 for counting all lanes, for whatever type of traffic. It's valuable
information for cars that bikes are driving alongside. If a router has to
choose a route for a car, a road without bikes is probably better. If a
driver has to turn left over a bike lane, router should show a danger sign,
watch out for bikes.

There are other types of traffic, like trams:

This link shows two tram lanes with parking places behind them. If a car
wants to park, it should watch out for trams from both directions, and then
cross those lanes and park. I think routers should have this information.
