Unnecessary maneuver instructions
I’ve noticed that ABRP is giving unnecessary instructions on long highway drives when there are rest stops along the highway. For example when you navigate over the German A1 from Osnabrueck to Bremen it will tell you three times to “continue” at rest stop exits. I did some comparison with other routing systems and it appears these instructions are created by Valhalla.
- Where does this happen?
- ABRP version number (found at bottom of settings menu)

This happens almost everywhere, this is just a route I drive more often.

Do you know an example rest stop in the route where this happens? Please specify an example if you are able to show it in the map.

Yes, for example this one: https://abetterrouteplanner.com/?plan_uuid=2-6ae32f64-38086ba66a17e520930ed10d
If you start navigating this route it will show the instruction where it says “continue”
Looking at the OSM mapping data, there is a clear distinction between the rest stops where this happens and the ones where it doesn’t. It will give the instruction if the motorway_junction goes straight into a service way. It doesn’t give the instruction if the junction splits into a motorway_link first. For example this nearby rest stop:
