Problem with barrier wall

Directions API
1

I have a problem here. You can Help me but there is a wall in middle of the road and linear barrier without entrance or gate.

What is the best solution? The road as same name in two parts

2

Could you can add barrier=wall there?

3

barrier wall exist in OSM. Previous message content a routing exemple. I Think the problem can exist with barrier=bollard drawing as line.

The road is split in 2 polylines with a topological point connection with wall polyline.

I think this is not considered in graph.

This is a normal case?

in osm graphopper routing the result is

Did you edit it recently? It can take currently 1 week to update this on our side (we are working towards a 1-2 days update cycle but not yet ready again)

6

a contributor have add barrier on a point but i don’t think this is a good practice. So I do a revert.

7

Why? Having this on a node is completely fine! https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:barrier

barrier wall

Only a line or closed line is accepted for this and for others cases if there is a line you can create a same element point on it.

Ah, indeed. You are right. Problem is that we do not support barrier ways yet. How frequent are they?

I do not know but there are ten cases in France. For bollard that uprise because some mapper want best represtentation and edit bollard as linear so that have an impact on routing in center of agglomeration (pedestrian zone)

there is 10 967 entries for barrier bollard in taginfo as ways
for all cases I don’t calculate the number of intersection with road. I thnk a good practice for mapping is add a topological intersection. I will create an overpass query to check that

11

This is the overpass query

https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/Gx4

There is more than:

  • 50 cases on Montpellier (France)
  • 100 cases on Toulouse (France)
  • 1000 cases in Paris region (France)

but this query need to be fix because for area highway wall can be tuch same way. So there is false positive

12

Can you add on a graph a simulate barrier on intersection point if this road intersection have not a barrier key?

I think you need ignore intersection case if the highway is an area.

13

Barriers on intersections are not allowed (at least in theory :wink: )

… Do not place a barrier tag on a junction between highways.

Hi
Is this still the case?

15

GraphHopper still only supports barriers on nodes.

Hi @karussell - I’m wondering if wall barrier is now supported by Graphhopper?
I face an issue when I’m trying to get the routes to an apartment block within a condominium area, the route appointing me to the nearest road which is incorrect since there is a correct gate entrance into the condominium area.
This is the example
There is a basement driveway actually within the condo area but seems has not mapped in OSM. I’m wondering are we able to appoint the route to take the main entrance, maybe by adding wall barrier around the condo?

Thank you
