Is there a way to indicate school zone speed limits?

[Patrick Dailey]

In the North-Eastern US (at least) we have reduced speed limits (sometimes drastically reduced) near schools at certain times of day, on weekdays, during the school year. Is there a way to indicate these reduced speed limits, and the specific dates and times that they are in effect? It would be very helpful as a speed limit reminder, but it could also greatly improve routing accuracy.

Excellent! Thank you! Is Osmand able to display the reduced speed limit during the conditional hours?

I think that not but I can't answer this one for sure.
Someone from the dev team will need to answer this.

Conditional hours/limits... are not implemented and not even part of new routing engine. This is step after for the routing.

Display and routing are to things. The fact that it is not used in routing is one thing. If you have to drive 20 km and 500 meters of it is 30 km/h instead of 50 km/h in urban circumstances, it will not have a big influence on your travelling time.

 

Based on the beginning of your sentence I guess the answer is no, but the question was: Is it displayed in the map? Are conditional max. speeds displayed in the map (as a max. speed)? I think it is more important that it is displayed at all times (for safety) also in the "off" hours, then that it is not displayed at all.

 

And as a second question (also based on your reaction): Are max. speeds only displayed during routing? Not at "normal" map view?

The answer is no, for all questions and we don't have separation between display and calculation.

Even more it is not present in obf data

Okay. Thank you all for your replies. I will continue to mark up school zones (in my little area at least) in the prescribed way so that the data is there if/when it gets implemented.

Is there a new status of this issue? As far as I can see (after a very quick view in the source code), there is code to detect the maxspeed:conditional in OSM-tags. Will the next release contain a working conditional handling?
