Add stops.bikes_boarding #592
Description
Describe the problem
An indication of the capacity to transport bicycles can only be found in Trips.bikes_allowed.
The GTFS therefore considers the issue of the carriage of bicycles in its current version only from the point of view of the public transport vehicle.
For wheelchairs, the authorisation to carry is conditional on Stops.wheelchair_boarding and Trips.wheelchair_accessible.
There is a relationship between the infrastructure and the transport vehicle.
It turns out that the physical location of a stopping point, its road geometry characteristics may or may not allow the carriage of bicycles, for safety reasons in particular.
This is especially true when the transit vehicle uses bike racks on the back. These devices require the Customer to be in the back of the vehicle and potentially on the road.
For bicycles, it is therefore necessary to make the relationship between the infrastructure and the transport vehicle.
Use cases
A physical stop somewhere
if off-road
bikes boarding is possible without risk of accident
if on-road
bikes boarding is impossible due to the risk of an accident
if The bus stop is on the public road it could not allow for the maneuvering of the bike rack.
etc.
