Hi all,
I'm the co-author of this proposal.
There are a difference about bicycle-forbidden and a compulsory cycleway.

At a "bicycle forbidden" section cycling is not allowed ever.
At a road with a compulsory cycleway, it is allowed to cycle on the road, if the cycleway is not passable, reachable or some other exceptions. Example:
http://mijndev.openstreetmap.nl/~peewee32/use_cycleway/Bicycle_use_cycleway.htm?map=cycleways&zoom=18&lat=51.10724&lon=7.38169&layers=B00000FFFFFFFTFFFFFFF
With bicycle=no the secondary is not reachable. With bicycle=use_cycleway a router can give those roads a lower factor.

In Germany it is allowed to leave the cycleway for a leftturn, if you choose the normal leftturn-lane (which cars use). Or in Austria training with a racebike is allowed to don't look after compulsory cycleway. I.e. for the last case the router can give you an option to allow "bicycle=use_cycleway"-roads.

We can't wait until all router add this tag, because they would say: "we pay heed to this tag, because is not common.

Cheers

A couple of questions.

How does this improve mapping/routing over using bicycle=no?

How does your proposal distinguish the exceptions to the rule that you gave as an example below?

Cheers

Legallythese 2 roads are not the same. For example.. in NL some 3 wheelbicycles with certain measurements are allowed to ride the second type of road.In other countries there is also a legal difference. For this reason we propose this new tag.
