Cycleway

Key Value Element Comment Rendering Photo Support
cycleway lane A lane is a route that lies within the roadway OD (22620), OR, J, PL(a)
cycleway track A track is a route that is separate from the road.+oneway=yes if needed. OD (62310), OR, J, PL(a)
cycleway opposite_lane Used on ways with oneway=yes that have cycling lanes on both sides (a "contraflow" lane) OD (1736), OR, J, PL(a)
cycleway opposite_track Used on ways with oneway=yes where cycling tracks run along both sides of the way. OD (699), OR, J, PL(a)
cycleway opposite Used on ways with oneway=yes where it is permitted to cycle in both directions. Note - such streets are common in Belgium, the Netherlands and Denmark, for example, but are rare in the UK (although they do exist): often, instead, actually the street is two-way as normal for its whole length except for the very short section past the no-entry sign at the end, where cycles are excepted from the no-entry by means of a short lane separated by an island. This is called a "cycle plug". In some places this has been represented as very short oneway Way at the end with an adjacent cycleway, forming a little triangle with the road they join to, or sometimes with a short oneway Way with cycleway=opposite_lane or opposite_track. OD (5190), OR, J, PL(a)
