Boarding locations which serve flex services can be inaccessible to cars

[leonardehrenfried]

If you have a stop that is linked up to the street network with OSM boarding locations, it is possible, even easy, to create island that are only accessible to pedestrians but not cars. Usually that is not a problem because you're walking to the stop anyway.

However, this means that flex services, which need car access, also cannot reach the stop.

We have had a very similar bug, but this particular one is about combining flex with boarding locations.

Don't you need to walk to the stop even if you are using flex to reach the stop?

You do but one of the peculiarities of flex is that the car also needs to reach the stop.

Can you explain more how flex access / egress work? The stop isn't accessible by car in the real world (you can't drive your car onto the platform) so the graph is correct after the previous bug was fixed. If you need to walk to the platform why don't you have a walk leg between the flex leg and the transit leg? Thanks. 4 Dec 2024 09:34:54 Leonard Ehrenfried ***@***.***>:
