Thread:Must-walk rating (2)
From Cyclopath
I think we do need something like this.
Depending on what I am riding, I may not mind walking over a few stairs, but if I'm on the tandem or pulling a trailer stairs are impassible.
Last week I marked some stairs on the U West Bank as "unpaved" on the theory that they don't really have smooth, level pavement. No one's said anything so far.
It would be better if we had a broader list of attributes to assign to blocks and to be able to select/deselect route options that contain selected attributes. For example, most bike trails are not signed and the rideability and safety of trails varies greatly. If I am routed on an unsigned bike trail that I have not been on before I may get lost. I want to be able to tell the routing system not to route me over bicycle trails that I have not rated.
