restriction:bicycle=stop is used to indicate a stop for bicycles after turning on red was allowed by a sign. This is used at traffic lights where bicycles are allowed to pass at a red light after coming to a stop.

This restriction aligns with the concept of a "Grünpfeil" (green arrow) commonly used in German-speaking countries, allowing cyclists to safely navigate intersections while respecting the right-of-way of other road users. When a cyclist encounters a red traffic signal and intends to turn right, they must first come to a complete stop, yield to any oncoming traffic or pedestrians, and then proceed with their right turn when it is safe to do so. This is for example used in Austria.

How to map

Create a relation with following members

  • way way cyclists arrive with the role Role from
  • node node with the traffic sign (traffic_signals) with the role Role via
  • optional: way way(s) following the "from"-way leading to the "to"-way with role Role via
  • way way cyclists go to after having stopped with the role Role to

Members

Way or node Role Recurrence Discussion
way Role from 1
1 or more
A way from which restriction starts (e.g., right turn for cyclists from here).
way Role to 1
1 or more
The other end of the restriction (where to turn in).
node
way
Role via 1 node
1 or more way(s)
The Role via member(s) connect the beginning and end ways representing the allowed or restricted maneuver.

A turn restriction can either have one node node with a Role via role, or one or more way way(s) as members with a Role via role.

The node node or way way(s) between the end points across which you would travel (if the turn weren't restricted) may just be the simple intersection node node of the two ways, or, considering a dual carriageway where you can't turn across it, the little way way(s) connecting the two carriageways.
