Hi,
First of all, thank you for your continuous work on this project (and apologies in advance if this is not the right place to ask this).
For context : OTP 2.9.0, we are working on an OTP deployment in a non-urban territory. We have received feedback from users who warn us about OTP route segments that are said to be suitable for cycling, while in reality they are pedestrian only and sometimes dangerous for bikes.
After investigating the OSM tags, these segments are tagged as highway=path and therefore fall under the PEDESTRIAN_AND_BICYCLE modes in the default OsmTagMapper.
I understand that ideally the OSM data should be completed to tag those ways as non suitable for bikes, but in the meantime I would like to know how we can work on a custom TagMapper to make sure we don't push dangerous itineraries to cycling users.
More specifically, if we come up with a CustomTagMapper, should we rebuild the whole shaded jar locally and use it, or can we just add it in the classpath in a separate jar to avoid building the whole OTP jar locally ?
Thanks in advance for your help on that topic
