I was looking at a route generated along NYC's very popular greenway. I noticed that it was wavier than I knew the bike lane to be. When I looked at one section, the route was off the bike lane. When I tried using a control point, I could not move the route back to the bike lane. I can even see cyclists in the lane in the satellite image! When I look at the cyclist map, I can see that the bike lane is in the right place. So why did the auto generated route get off the bike lane and refuses to return? BTW, you'll note that the route seems to cross over from the wrong lane to the correct one without any connecting surface? I think it's even going over a wall. The esplanade being in the river is a map issue, but bypassing the correct bike lane is a computer problem, I think.

  Hi Thane, thank you for bringing this up. Looks like the OSM was updated recently, and we should be able to create routes. I have put this across to our map experts to look into updating Dashboard maps. This should be fixed and routable in upcoming updates. As of now, you might be able to create routes on other platform and import the GPX file or the sync routes.

  Hi Ali. If the maps are being looked at then maybe it is an opportunity to get the missing national, regional and local bike network routes added? These have not been included in our cycling maps since day 1, but are certainly included on OCM.
