Ferries in Nova Scotia are not used for routing

Hi Manny, thx for the link and for improving OSM, nice! :clap:
I assume you know these ferries and are sure they take motorcycles? If so, do they also take cars? Should we maybe set motor_vehicles and not only motorcycles?

It takes about 1-2 weeks unfortunately until all the caches and processes in the background are refreshed with the new info. Kurviger should adapt to your changes automatically then

Edit:
Ok looking at this a bit longer, I think there’s more to do here


The “motorcar → yes” the value you set? I don’t think this is the right one, the one that navigation algorithms look for (maybe @boldtrn can weigh in on that?). The access value (the upper marking in my screenshot) is the relevant thing we need to change. Note that “Alle → yes” in gray doesn’t mean anything, it just means “no value set”. So we would have to explicitely set this to “yes”, so that it shows up in the properties below, like so:

You can read more about this here

Also, there is this gate in front of the terminal which also doesn’t have an access value set. I think this won’t work in 1-2 weeks, unless we do some more work here
