Hey guys,

Maybe the wrong place to post as it could be an OsmAnd routing problem. But just in case it's an OSM problem:

Right here: https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/-31.942/115.85185 Is an off ramp into a regular street. However when going from the off ramp I get routed onto the BUS lane rather than going straight through:

Green line is expected but it takes me along the red line, which is a right onto a different street, then left onto a bus lane then onto the road I want.

Thanks guys

It's not exactly correct tag, I mean not the most common, I haven't found any documentation about motor_vehicle=bus. The preferred tagging should be motor_vehicle=no with bus=designated or psv=designated. These two combinations are more common than this one, it's possible that osmand developers didn't care about this rare tag.

Also the small triangle shouldn't exist, the bus road should end at the intersection of the other two roads.

@beppi@sh.itjust.works So i not just osmand, the map isn't perfect as well.
