I much prefer the clarity of bike infrastructure on the CyclOSM layer over Cycle Map.

But recently, it seems to either be blank (literally no map shows up) or it comes up as a basic map with no cycling infrastructure highlighted (i.e. if you are using brouter).

Even the official website isn't right.

Does anyone know what's happening?

I was just about to post the same question! It was my favourite way to plan my routes.

As a side question: does anyone know how to get a similar style in OSMAnd? The built-in views are not great for cycling. I know I can do a "layer" over top, but I don't have data so it's not a solution when I'm on the go. Plus, lately it seems to just be displaying the default OSM Carto style. :/

I like to use "Offline vector maps" with the map style "CycloRoute" (download here).

Cycle routes and bike lanes are highlighted in BOLD BLUE, and it's so easy to see. There's also a touring style, which can also be helpful.

This is a great add on, thanks for that. This alongside the BRouter routing engine is awesome.
