Hi again :) Thanks for all the bike parking additions recently!

Just a note that it’s not common practice to add a stub path leading to the cycle parking node if it’s just off the side of a path. Bike routing engines don’t need it.

If you wanted to describe the area here more precisely, I’d probably map a traffic island (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:area:highway%3Dtraffic_island) at the end of these rows of parking spaces, with the bike parking node inside the traffic island, and the zebra crossing transitioning to a footpath as it enters the island.

That level of detail certainly isn’t necessary for routers to suggest the bike parking to people, though. Happy to chat about it further if you’re interested!

One other quick question: what kind of bike parking is this? I see you’ve used bicycle_parking=rack in a few places, but that kind of parking is relatively uncommon in the UK. Typically UK bike parking is bicycle_parking=stands (see https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:bicycle_parking). I just wanted to double check!
