Maneuver LeftTurnCost exists?

We would like to avoid left turns as many express companies have that as a policy in the USA since it is faster and introduces less accidents. I could not find this option in the xRoute profiles. Does one exist?

Hello Jan,

know that the usecase "avoid left turns" is quite common in the parcel delivery business but unfortunately the current routing interfaces do not provide a penalty for left turns. We only support penalty for u-turns.

I forwarded your request to DEV, but I'm realistic: I do not expect a quick solution for that. Not even sure whether the upcoming features in autumn deal with it.

Best regards Bernd
