"cycleway{" here on Mount Auburn Street is actually an on-street buffered bike lane, and mapping it as a cycleway 1. misrepresents it as an offstreet path, and includes no information on what sort of bike lane it is (that it's buffered and asphalt and decently smooth) 2. makes bike routing worse: bike routing tools now will show turn cues that aren't meaningful, and onto ways like this that do not have names, so it will just say "turn slight right". This isn't useful

These sorts of ways are found in a number of places across boston, and really aren't great for data quality of the map or for people using the map as a navigational tool for bikes. As someone who does a lot of bike route planning, I've been increasingly frustrated by the quality of the map in the boston area in this regard
