walking travel time penalty for intersection crossings

[rafapereirabr]

Hi all, do you know whether R5 adds a travel time penalty when pedestrians need to cross road intersections?

Hi @rafapereirabr,

Default routing includes intersection traversal times for cars, but not for other modes: https://github.com/conveyal/r5/blob/3387fd57daad40b4d1e3cd494cdf0ca98a4f21bc/src/main/java/com/conveyal/r5/streets/BasicTraversalTimeCalculator.java#L48-L62

Generalized cost routing has provisions to add intersection crossing penalties for walking, e.g. https://github.com/conveyal/r5/blob/3387fd57daad40b4d1e3cd494cdf0ca98a4f21bc/src/main/java/com/conveyal/r5/streets/LaDotWalkCostSupplier.java#L34

Happy to discuss further if you're interested.
