Kurviger is reluctant to route through the shared space (Begegnungszone) in Hittisau:

Yesterday, the router sent us down a road restricted to local residents only (we turned back, I tagged the road in OSM, so it shouldn’t happen tomorrow).

As far as I can see or my internet research shows, the tagging of the shared space is correct.  
This is the main route to the Riedberg Pass - Kurviger should route through there.

Quite nonsensical is also the display of the potential ban:

It “worked”: With “avoid unpaved roads” enabled, Kurviger can no longer find its way through Hittisau to the Riedberg Pass without help:

Thanks for reporting this, it’s an interesting case, we’ll need to take a closer look at it.
