Which are you using?

For most things (day trips, few km after work…) I use multiple of them.

Mapy.cz

  • online and offline mobile app
  • trip planner works pretty well
  • you can check out places (photos, reviews…) when online
  • well maped whole Europe
  • not enough information about roads (asphalt, paved, gravel…)
  • basically interactive version of KČT maps

Cykloserver.cz

  • can’t find app
  • basic planner, but better for drawing your route
  • much more helpful info about roads
  • it is just automatically scaled paper map, so you have to know how to read it

Osm clients - I tried multiple of them.

Paper maps - from the same company that makes the Cycloserver maps. You can get set of them for about 100€ (CZ not sure about SK). There is just something special about planning trip on paper maps.

    There’s no one tag to do this but a combination of mapping the negative sides of the tunnel road and the positive sides of the bigger road should be enough.

    That’s what I feared: the routers can use anything with any weight, and we cannot know about it. It could be a good idea to reach people doing the routers and tell them that stuff like unlit tunnels should be weighted negatively.

    Some ideas:

    cycleway=no for the tunnel road and perhaps something like cycleway=shoulder for the bigger road

    I can add “cycleway=no” for the tunnel road (cycleway is not set there), but the bigger road has “cycleway:both=no” already set, and well, that’s the reality.

    Maybe the bigger road has better asphalt? Tagging smoothness values of both can help.

    That depends on the year :-) But something is constant: the potholes inside the tunnels; so yes, I can at least set “smoothness=bad” under the tunnels.

    Are there official cycle routes going through? Many routers take these very seriously. Note that it may be that there’s an outdated route mapped through the tunnel road.

    I cant’ see such route on RideWithGPS’ “Cycle OSM” view (I guess I would if there was one), and I don’t see any of the tags present on the page you linked in OpenStreetMap objects data either.

    I’ll perform the two small modifications I picked from your list, and see after a few weeks or months if something seems to have changed, or not.

    Thanks for the pieces of information you gave me.
