Barrier=gate prevents driving directions

Hi @adamschneider,

please see Add possibility to turn acccess restrictions off when calculating a route for a workaround.

@adamschneider

It apears that ORS refuses to give driving directions on a road that has a gate on it (OSM tag barrier=gate), even if the gate has no access restrictions attached to it.

That’s the intended way to deal with a barrier where the access rules are not defined.
If a barrier does not prevent access it can be stated with the access=yes tag.
For always open gates entrance can be considered as value as well (see wiki for barriers).

Best regards
